ABSTRACT
Atypical fractures are gaining attention as a severe potential side effect of long-term treatment with bone-modifying agents (e.g., bisphosphonate and denosumab) for osteoporosis. Most atypical fractures occur in weight-bearing bones; the femur is the most frequent site. Atypical fractures occurring in non-weight-bearing bones are extremely rare. We describe an atypical fracture of the scapular spine in a 92-year-old Japanese woman with osteoporosis who had been treated with minodronate for ~7 years. Although the dislocation of the fracture site remained after conservative treatment, there was no obstacle to her daily life.
