| Abstract | We report on the case of a severely osteoporotic elderly Japanese woman with bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), who was treated successfully with teriparatide. A 79-year-old woman with severe osteoporosis and bisphosphonate-associated ONJ was treated with teriparatide after debridement of the necrotic tissue in the jaw bone. Computed tomography (CT) images revealed the bone defect in the mandible after debridement of the necrotic tissue associated with ONJ. According to the attending dentist, the ONJ healed after 2 months of therapy. After 3 months of treatment, a robust increase in the serum level of the bone formation marker, serum intact procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide, was noted and a repeat CT revealed improvement of the bone defect of the mandible. These results suggest the beneficial effects of teriparatide therapy in the severely osteoporotic elderly woman with ONJ. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
