[Zoledronic acid-based uveitis: a case report and a bibliography review]. / Uveitis por ácido zolendrónico: reporte de un caso y revisión de la bibliografía.

There are several treatment options for postmenopausic patients suffering from ostopenia or osteoporosis; one of them being inhibition of bone resorption using bisphosphonates. The most common side effects of these drugs are of gastrointestinal nature. There are, of course, other side effects that could jeopardize the function and integrity of other organs or systems. A case of a 58-year-old patient presenting zoledronic-acid induced uveitis symptoms is reported. The importance of this paper lies in that this complication is rather exceptional, in particular if associated with the biphosphonate in question.
