Treatment Goals
The major goals of treatment for patients at risk of developing or who have BRONJ are:
Prioritization and support of continued oncologic treatment in patients receiving IV
bisphosphonates.
Oncology patients can benefit greatly from the therapeutic effect of bisphosphonates by
controlling bone pain and reducing the incidence of other skeletal complications.
Preservation of quality of life through:
Patient education and reassurance
Control of pain
Control of secondary infection
Prevention of extension of lesion and development of new areas of necrosis
