Denosumab and metatarsal fracture healing: potential benefits with delayed remodeling: a case report.

Background: Denosumab is known to enhance callus formation while delaying remodeling. However, its effects on fracture healing are scarcely reported in the literature. This case report, to the best of our knowledge, is the first to report the potential effect of denosumab on a metatarsal fracture in an older adult patient, 4 months after administration, resulting in a favorable clinical course with early weight-bearing 17 days after the fracture.
