Editorial Current Scenario in Osteoporotic Vertebral Fracture
Editorial
Abstract
Bone fragility increases with osteoporosis resulting
in increased risk of fractures. It is a major concern for
postmenopausal women also in elderly. In USA and Europe,
postmenopausal women who have osteoporosis are about
30%. Above age 50, one in three women or one in five men
is expected to experience osteoporotic fracture.[1] A minor
trauma like a fall or spontaneous may be due to osteoporotic
vertebral fractures (OVF) which is expected to affect
117/100000 persons
