Abstract：In management of patients with breast cancer, a high proportion of breast cancer patients suffer from bone health problems which include not only bone metastasis but also osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency, and secondary hyperparathyroidism. If the clinical treatments do not attach enough attention to them, these will inevitably affect the quality of life and prognosis of the patients with breast cancer. Therefore, more attention should be paid to the relevant bone health problems in treatment, prevention and early intervention of breast cancer, to improve the quality of life and prognosis of breast cancer patients.
