Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (PHOAR1/2) was found in 12 patients, followed by juvenile Paget's disease (JPD)-5 in five, craniometaphyseal dysplasia (CMD) and Camurati-Engelmann disease (CED) in four, Ghosal hematodiaphyseal dysplasia (GHDD) in three patients, sclerosteosis-1 in two patients, and ultra-rare diseases including trichothiodystrophy-1, prenatal Caffey disease, melorheosteosis, and Lenz-Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism in one patient each. Patients with CMD and sclerosteosis-1 had severe cranial sclerosis leading to facial dysmorphism. CMD was characterized by metaphyseal widening, radiolucency, and diaphyseal sclerosis of the long bones in early childhood and later developed Erlenmeyer flask deformity sparing the vertebrae and pelvis, whereas sclerosteosis-1 manifested as generalized sclerosis. CED and GHDD share bone pain, difficulty in walking, and diaphyseal sclerosis, with some patients also having bone marrow involvement. Interestingly, patients with CED and JPD-5 showed osteopenia in early childhood, followed by the development of osteosclerosis in late childhood. Clinical and radiologic findings improved over time in PHOAR1 patients, whereas they progressed in JPD-5 and trichothiodystrophy-1 patients. Intra- and interfamilial clinical differences were observed in CMD, CED, JPD-5, and GHDD.

In an open-label, one-year extension study following a two-year double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial, 39 older adults aged 65 years and above, who were residents of LTCCs and participants in the PROUD (PReventing Osteoporosis Using Denosumab) trial, received a single 5 mg dose of zoledronic acid after completing four doses of denosumab 60 mg during the PROUD trial.

Additionally, we surveyed patients for fractures. Our study included 27 women and 12 men, with a mean age of 81.5 years. Twelve months after the administration of zoledronic acid, the mean percent changes from the end of the denosumab trial showed no significant decline in any of the BMD sites in both women and men.
