Attenuation of Bone Mineral Density Decline During Anemia Treatment With Methenolone Acetate in Myelodysplastic Syndrome

In an aging society, addressing the risks and management of osteoporotic fractures is critical to reduce mortality. Similarly, the morbidity of chronic kidney disease and myelodysplastic syndrome increases with aging. The association between chronic kidney disease and fractures is well understood; however, recent reports have indicated an increased risk of incident osteoporosis in patients with prevalent myelodysplastic syndrome. In this case report, we present an older man with stage 4 chronic kidney disease complicated by myelodysplastic syndrome and progressive decline in bone mineral density. He was treated with methenolone acetate and darbepoetin for anemia caused by myelodysplastic syndrome. During anemia treatment, the decline in bone mineral density was attenuated overtime. The case findings suggest the potential association between the use of methenolone acetate as a synthetic anabolic steroid and attenuated decline in bone mineral density.
