Trabecular Bone Score as an Index of Bone Fragility in Patients with Acromegaly: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Background: Acromegaly is characterized by impaired bone quality and increased fracture risk. However, due to the pathophysiology of acromegalic osteopathy, bone mineral density (BMD) does not represent a reliable predictor for fragility fractures in this setting. Trabecular bone score (TBS)…
