Abstract
Due to increasing life expectancy, the prevalence of fractures caused by osteoporosis is raising. These fractures significantly reduce the quality of life in the elderly population. They represent both a disease and an injury simultaneously. While they were once treated solely with conservative methods, new techniques and implants are expanding the indications for surgical treatment. This article presents the current treatment options.
期刊介绍：
The European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery aims to open an interdisciplinary forum that allows for the scientific exchange between basic and clinical science related to pathophysiology, diagnostics and treatment of traumatized patients. The journal covers all aspects of clinical management, operative treatment and related research of traumatic injuries.
Clinical and experimental papers on issues relevant for the improvement of trauma care are published. Reviews, original articles, short communications and letters allow the appropriate presentation of major and minor topics.
