Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw-like lesions in rodents: A comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis.

Based on rodent studies, common pathological findings were extracted in bisphosphonate-related ONJ (BRONJ)-like lesions, whereas no definitive pathogenesis was identified. There is no information about the pathology and pathogenesis of denosumab-related ONJ. These findings clearly suggest that accumulation of scientific evidence based on animal studies is absolutely necessary to explore the pathology and pathogenesis of MRONJ in humans. ZA administration would be a significant risk factor for developing BRONJ-like lesions.
