Description

Certain cancer and bone drugs can kill jaw bone, a side effect called medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw, and Chinese clinics had no shared playbook for it. Han-Jin Ruan and co-authors convened experts from eleven leading medical schools and hospitals to write one, reviewing the evidence on causes, risk factors, diagnosis, staging, treatment, and prevention.

The consensus sets a diagnostic recipe: drug history plus typical signs, backed by imaging or tissue evidence, once spread of cancer to the jaw is ruled out. Surgery enters for painful cases with dead bone and repeated infection, and one staging system is endorsed. Care, they insist, should be multidisciplinary.
