Osteoporosis is a disease that orthopaedic surgeons and trauma surgeons have to deal with on a daily basis. The identification of patients with an osteoporotic fracture is one of the key tasks during inpatient or even outpatient treatment. As the problem is also increasing due to demographic change and the ageing of the population, the earliest possible diagnosis of osteoporosis to avoid suffering, pain and costs is of enormous importance. In this article, the necessary steps for the treatment of patients are outlined. Especially after a fracture, rapid diagnosis and therapy are required, as the risk is drastically increased for the first 12-24 months after the fracture and subsequent fractures are imminent. This so-called „imminent risk" has been discussed intensively in recent years. The aim is to initiate adequate therapy as soon as possible after the fracture. Against the background of the current approval situation of the active substances and the available studies, either an antiresorptive or an osteoanabolic therapy can be used. The decision for the respective therapies can be made individually and risk-based. In addition to the initiation of the necessary therapy, the further care of the patients is also enormously important. Promising measures are, for example, the establishment of networks between clinics and practices or the „Disease Management Programme" (DMP) Osteoporosis, which is now being implemented in the individual regions after a positive decision.

Introduction: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a genetic disease that primarily affects bone formation and metabolism. Craniofacial malfortions belong to the broad spectrum of the OI phenotype. The introduction of bisphosphonate medications was intended to counteract the significant brittleness of the bones of OI patients. In connection with the application of bisphosphonates, drug-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw has become known as an undesirable effect of the therapeutically intended reduction of osteoclast activity. Originally, the pharmacological inhibition of bone loss was mainly used in oncological therapy. For some time now, osteoporosis has also been treated with substances that inhibit bone resorption. In OI, malposition of the jaws is relatively common, in particular retrognathia of the maxilla and progeny of the mandible. The literature discloses complications of orthognathic surgery in OI patients. Previous literature reviews suggest that bisphosphonate medication has no significant impact on the performance of and healing after oral surgery in OI patients.Material and methods: An essential prerequisite of a therapy adapted to the patient’s condition is the knowledge of the patient's medical history. This case report describes the orthodontic-surgical treatment of an OI patient and the treatment experience derived in dealing with the condition. The unusual circumstance of this case is that the patient had concealed both his underlying disease and his medication during the current treatment period. In addition, the relevant literature is evaluated for combining the keywords OI, orthodontic therapy, bisphosphonates, and orthognathic surgery.Results: Based on the literature and our own experience, it is concluded that orthodontic treatment with bisphosphonate medication can also be carried out in OI patients. However, considerably greater forces and longer time intervals should be scheduled for each treatment. Orthognathic surgery with bisphosphonate medication turned out to be uncomplicated in our own case, considering the underlying disease in the planning of surgical procedures. However, there have been very few reports of OI patients in whom orthodontic-surgical treatment of jaw malformation has been performed with bisphosphonate medication. Conclusion: Taking into account the reported experience of severe complications of orthognathic surgery, the multiple documented adjustments to the treatment strategy of OI patients should be taken seriously. The basic condition of therapy adapted to the disease is that the patient informs the practitioner in an appropriate manner about his or her state of health.

Femoral shaft fractures mostly result from high-energy trauma and young adult males are typically affected. The standard treatment is antegrade reamed interlocking medullary nailing. Retrograde nailing and plate fixation are other treatment options. In polytraumatized patients, primary management according to the guidelines of damage control surgery includes initial fracture fixation with an external fixator before scheduled early secondary definitive fixation is performed. Particularly in complex fractures, restoration of the length and rotation can represent some challenges for the surgeon. This article provides tips and tricks for the effective management of femoral shaft fractures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Decreasing the incidence of osteoporotic fractures is a major challenge for the next decades. Prevention, early identification of people at risk, reduction of risk factors and early start of treatment are effective tools to reduce fracture incidence. Basic treatments include non-pharmacological interventions and optimiziation of the diet. Core practice consists of the selective use of specific drugs, as well as regular control of achievements and reevaluation of long-term risks. Side effects are discussed widely in public media, creating demand for drug holidays from all sides. Nevertheless, osteoporotic fractures might occur in those treatment-free intervals. Therefore, high-risk patients should continue treatment, possibly with a different drug. In this article the current guidelines are presented and problems associated with long-term treatment are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Proximal femoral fractures are still one of the most common fractures in elderly people. Many implants with good evidence are available to choose from but patients greatly differ and deviations from the standard patient procedure are regularly necessary. The key objectives are early mobilization, good range of motion, freedom from pain and risk reduction. Furthermore, high priority in postoperative care management should be given to a reduction of postoperative delirium and reoccurrence of falling events. As many fractures are related to the presence of osteoporosis, further assessment and diagnostics are necessary. Bisphosphonates are approved medications in the treatment of osteoporosis but in recent years reports and studies could occasionally be found involving subtrochanteric femoral fractures under bisphosphonate treatment. According to recent references there is no evidence for an increased risk fracture, even during long-term treatment with these medications. Re-evaluation of the patient situation after years of treatment and intensive aftercare is recommended. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
