ABSTRACT
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by loss of bone mass. The detection of the first fracture represents, in the majority of cases, the first opportunity for the care and timely treatment of osteoporosis. A fragility fracture is defined as any fall from a standing height or less, resulting in a fracture. Surgical management of bone fragility fractures, with adequate implant selection according to the personality of a fracture, remains the treatment of choice in the majority of patients with hip fractures in our environment. Breaking the barriers of discrimination of the individualized management by the orthopedist and converting it into a multidisciplinary management with the support of the internal medicine professional or geriatrician for the benefit of the patient is paramount in helping to improve the morbidity and mortality of the patient with fragility who is currently suffering from a fracture of hip.
