Fracture risk assessment before and after resolution of endogenous hypercortisolism: Is the FRAX® algorithm useful?

Purpose Fracture risk data following curative treatment of Cushing’s syndrome (CS) are scarce and the role of bisphosphonates in bone recovery after remission is controversial. We evaluated the effects of hypercortisolism remission in bone recovery in CS. Then, we assessed if the FRAX® algorithm calculated before the cure can predict fracture risk after cure.
