Abstract:
A 50-year-old male patient was treated with adefovir dipivoxil 10 mg/d once daily for chronic hepatitis B. Seven years later, the patient developed multiple bone pains all over the body, which were gradually aggravated and restricted his movements. X-ray, CT, and magnetic resonance imaging examinations showed old fractures of the left 8th rib and the right 7th rib and fracture of the right femoral neck. Laboratory tests showed that serum creatinine was 111 μmol/L, serum phosphorus was 0.41 mmol/L, and alkaline phosphatase was 216 U/L. Bone mineral density examination showed osteoporosis in the 1st to 4th lumbar vertebrae, femoral necks, and total hipbones. Adefovir dipivoxil-induced hypophosphatemia was diagnosed. Adefovir dipivoxil was discontinued and replaced by entecavir, and oral phosphorus supplementation was given. After 2 months of treatments, the patient′s symptoms were improved. After 6 months of treatments, the bone pain basically disappeared and alkaline phosphatase, serum creatinine, and phosphorus returned to normal.
