Bone health in patients with prostate cancer

Conclusions The prevention and management of bone involvement in patients with prostate cancer are critical to quality of life in these patients and require an individualized approach. Before starting a prolonged androgen deprivation, baseline risk of fracture should be evaluated in order to adopt the proper protective measures. In patients with metastases, early treatments reducing the risk of bone events should be taken into account.
