A Case of Bisphosphonate-Related Jaw Osteonecrosis: Radiological Features and Early Diagnosis
Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a morbid adverse effect characterized by the exposure of the alveolar bone. It presents with distinctive radiological features that not only guide diagnosis but also help detect complications, as illustrated in our patient. The purpose of this presentation is to demonstrate the radiological semiology through our case to familiarize radiologists with this pathology and briefly remind them of the pathophysiological mechanisms behind this side effect.
