The osteoporotic fracture has both the commonness and particularity of fracture, which poses challenges to orthopedic surgeons. Meanwhile, the fast improvement of interdisciplinary research and the advancement of basic research in bone metabolism have brought many opportunities to facilitate the treatment of osteoporotic fracture. The authors intend to illustrate the challenges and solutions during the treatment of osteoporotic fracture by elaborating the awareness, fracture assessment, drug development, implant design, postoperative rehabilitation and refracture prevention to establish an improved protocol for the therapy.
