description This Reprint collates recent advances in the field of geriatric trauma, with a particular focus on the surgical and nonsurgical management of fractures in older adults. As populations age worldwide, the incidence of fragility fractures and the complexity of care for frail and multimorbid patients continue to increase. Contributors to this Reprint examine current practices in trauma and orthopedic surgery, the role of multidisciplinary care, and the challenges of optimizing outcomes while balancing risks of complications. Topics covered include innovations in fracture management, perioperative decision-making, management of comorbidities, strategies for prevention of secondary fractures, and emerging approaches in frailty and osteoporosis care. By combining perspectives from geriatric medicine, trauma surgery, orthopedic surgery, and rehabilitation, the Reprint highlights the importance of integrated care pathways that improve recovery and quality of life for older adults. This collection is intended for clinicians, researchers, and policy makers interested in the evolving landscape of geriatric trauma care. It offers both clinical insights and a foundation for further research aimed at strengthening evidence-based and patient-centered approaches in this growing field.
