　2018年のASBMR年次総会は，９月28日から10月１日まで，モントリオール国際会議場で開催された。例年通り，骨・ミネラル代謝や筋肉などに関する数多くの演題が発表された。本学会では，診療上困難な症例の討論や若手研究者用のセッションの拡大など，新たな試みもいくつかみられた。本稿では，癌治療関連骨量減少と副甲状腺機能低下症の治療に関する演題を紹介する。

　The annual meeting of ASBMR was held in Montr?al Convention Center between September 28th and October 1st, 2018. Many scientific papers concerning bone, mineral metabolism, muscle and so on were presented as usual. There were several new attempts such as discussion about clinically difficult cases and sessions for young scientists in this meeting. I will introduce several papers concerning cancer treatment-induced bone loss and treatment of patients with PTH-deficient hypoparathyroidism.
