Abstract | STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case series. PURPOSE: OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE: METHODS: RESULTS: Bone union rate and average duration for bone union were 92% and 7.5 months in the long-duration treatment group, 80% and 8.5 months in the short-duration treatment group, and 70% and 10.0 months in the bisphosphonate treatment group, respectively. Results of bone union rate and average duration for bone union in the teriparatide treatment groups were significantly superior to those in the bisphosphonate treatment group (p<0.05); whereas, significantly superior results were observed in long-duration treatment group when compared with short-duration treatment group (p<0.05).
