Summary
This study tests if romosozumab (Evenity), a monthly injection, can improve bone density and muscle mass better than a weekly pill (alendronate) in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis who need spine surgery. About 36 women will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatments and followed for a year with scans and questionnaires. The goal is to see if stronger bones and muscles lead to fewer surgery complications and better recovery.
