Osteoporosis commonly afflicts Crohn's disease (CD) patients. Management remains unclear, with limited results for intravenous (i.v.) bisphosphonates and a follow-up longer than one year. Intravenous bisphosphonates bypass gastrointestinal-tract irritation offering an interesting alternative suitable for CD patients. We tested the
