Comparative analysis of osteoporotic versus pathologic fracture in metastatic colorectal cancer patients
The incidence rate of OF was comparable to that of PF and even higher in mCRC patients aged ≥ 70 years. While bone metastasis was a risk factor for PF, advanced age and osteoporosis were the risk factors for OF. Therefore, osteoporosis assessment and treatment are crucial to prevent OF during chemotherapy, particularly in the elderly.
