Abstract
Osteoporosis is a metabolic disease that is increasing in prevalence as people live longer. Because the orthopedic
surgeon is frequently the first and often the only physician to manage patients with osteoporotic hip fractures,
every effort should be made to prevent future fractures. A multidisciplinary approach is essential in treatment of
osteoporotic fractures. Basic treatment includes calcium and vitamin D supplementation, fall prevention, hip
protection, and balance and exercise programs. Currently available pharmacologic agents are divided into
antiresorptive and anabolic groups. Antiresorptive agents such as bisphosphonates limit bone resorption through
inhibition of osteoclastic activity. Anabolic agents such as parathyroid hormone promote bone formation.
