Abstract

Background: Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is an undesirable consequence of the action of drugs, involving the exposure of bones in a patient not exposed to ionizing radiation in the head and neck area. The occurrence of MRONJ is associated with therapy with anti-resorptive drugs (bisphosphonates), receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) drugs, e.g., denosumab, and anti-angiogenic drugs that are vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors.

Objectives: The aim of the present study was to identify risk factors for the development of MRONJ.

Material and methods: The medical records of patients hospitalized in the years 2015-2022 in the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery of the Ludwik Rydygier Specialist Hospital in Krakow and the Clinical Department of Maxillofacial Surgery of University Hospital in Krakow, Poland, were retrospectively analyzed. The study included patients treated for MRONJ in the maxilla and/or the mandible with a history of past bisphosphonate therapy. Patients with symptoms of osteonecrosis after radiotherapy of the head and neck region were excluded from the study. The patients' demographic data, comorbidities, the initial disease treated with bisphosphonates, the route of drug administration, the type of causative dental surgery, the area of necrosis, and the MRONJ class according to the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS) criteria were analyzed.

Results: The investigated group consisted of 29 females and 14 males. Common comorbidities were anemia, diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension. Bisphosphonates were used in 30 patients (69.8%) treated for cancer, in 10 patients (23.3%) treated for osteoporosis and in 2 patients (4.7%) treated for osteopenia. In the majority of cases (n = 19; 44.2%), bisphosphonates were administrated intravenously. Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw was diagnosed in the mandible in 25 cases (58.1%) and in 18 (41.9%) - in the maxilla. In 14 patients (32.6%), necrosis was initiated by a dental procedure, most often tooth extraction.

Conclusions: Risk factors for the development of MRONJ in patients treated with bisphosphonates include the intravenous route of drug administration, past intraoral surgery, female gender, and senior age.

药物相关性颌骨骨坏死发生的潜在危险因素分析。
背景:药物相关性颌骨骨坏死(MRONJ)是药物作用的不良后果,涉及未暴露于电离辐射的患者头颈部骨骼暴露。MRONJ的发生与抗吸收药物(双膦酸盐)、核因子- κ B配体受体激活剂(RANKL)药物(如denosumab)和血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)抑制剂抗血管生成药物的治疗有关。目的:本研究的目的是确定MRONJ发展的危险因素。材料与方法:回顾性分析波兰克拉科夫Ludwik Rydygier专科医院颌面外科和克拉科夫大学医院颌面外科临床科室2015-2022年住院患者的病历。该研究包括接受过双膦酸盐治疗的上颌和/或下颌骨MRONJ治疗的患者。头颈部放疗后出现骨坏死症状的患者排除在研究之外。根据美国口腔颌面外科医师协会(AAOMS)的标准,分析患者的人口学资料、合并症、双膦酸盐治疗的初始疾病、给药途径、牙科手术类型、坏死面积和MRONJ分类。结果:实验组女性29例,男性14例。常见的合并症有贫血、糖尿病和高血压。双膦酸盐用于30例(69.8%)癌症患者、10例(23.3%)骨质疏松患者和2例(4.7%)骨质减少患者。在大多数情况下(n = 19;44.2%),静脉给予双膦酸盐。下颌骨药物相关性骨坏死25例(58.1%),上颌药物相关性骨坏死18例(41.9%)。在14例(32.6%)患者中,坏死是由牙科手术引起的,最常见的是拔牙。结论:双膦酸盐治疗患者发生MRONJ的危险因素包括静脉给药途径、既往口腔内手术、女性和高龄。
