etidronate and Melorheostosis

etidronate has been researched along with Melorheostosis in 3 studies

Etidronic Acid: A diphosphonate which affects calcium metabolism. It inhibits ectopic calcification and slows down bone resorption and bone turnover.
etidronic acid : A 1,1-bis(phosphonic acid) that is (ethane-1,1-diyl)bis(phosphonic acid) having a hydroxy substituent at the 1-position. It inhibits the formation, growth, and dissolution of hydroxyapatite crystals by chemisorption to calcium phosphate surfaces.

Melorheostosis: A form of osteosclerosis extending in a linear track mainly through one of the long bones of the upper and lower limbs.
