Abstract
In summary, early periprosthetic bone loss is associated with a transient expansion of the bone remodeling space. Bisphosphonate therapy reduces femoral calcar bone loss and bone turnover after THA, but did not influence cup migration in this study. Acute changes in biochemical markers predict femoral periprosthetic bone loss.
