We conclude that early detection of LRP5 mutations is important for initiation of treatment of reduced bone density in the patients and their carrier relatives. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment Treatment Options: Bone fractures need to be repaired and glaucoma treated when present. Bisphosphonate treatment may lead to increased bone density if initiated early. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
