dc.description.abstractOsteoporosis is a silent, asymptomatic disease until a fragility fracture is sustained. Fractures greatly affect the physical functioning and health-related quality of life and are associated with increased mortality and mor-bidity rates. Furthermore, once a fragility fracture occurs, the patient is more susceptible to sustain further fractures. Repeated falls are the main causes of fractures in patients with osteoporosis. The management of osteoporosis postfracture is a combination of medical treatment, nutritional interventions, and rehabilitation in order to improve activities of daily living to prevent falls and increase safety while reducing the loss of bone mass. In this article the principles of fracture prevention and physical rehabilitation of patients with osteoporosis postvertebral and hip fragility fractures will be discussed, as well as the rehabilitation management to prevent further falls and fractures.
