Abstract
Aromatase inhibitors are used in the treatment of breast cancer and androgen deprivation therapy is used in prostate cancer. Both of them induce bone loss and increase fracture incidence. Early detection is important for patients with increased risk of osteoporotic fractures. In this article we review the available treatments and their indication to prevent the onset of osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures in this patient group.
