Pregnancy-associated osteoporosis with seven vertebral compression fractures, a case treated with strontium ranelate. Clin Cases Miner Bone Metab. 2014 May;11(2):139-41 Authors: Zarattini G, Buffoli P, Isabelli G, Marchese M Abstract This paper shows a case of pregnancy-associated osteoporosis (PAO) with seven vertebral compression fractures treated with strontium ranelate and supplementation of calcium and cholecalciferol. Clinical evaluation, laboratory and radiological results are analyzed in the case-report to demonstrate that strontium ranelate is a good option to restore quickly the value of bone mineral density in the treatment of a case of PAO.
