Atypical femoral fractures (AFFs) are a rare but serious complication of prolonged anti-resorptive therapy for osteoporosis. This study aimed to develop consensus-based recommendations for the clinical management of AFFs across the Asian Federation of Osteoporosis Societies (AFOS), for harmonizing practice and improving patient outcomes.A structured questionnaire covering ten key domains related to AFFs was distributed to expert representatives from the 10 AFOS member countries or regions. Responses were analyzed to identify areas of consensus and variation in regional practice. A concurrent narrative review of the literature was conducted to inform evidencebased recommendations. Survey responses were obtained from 8 of 10 participating AFOS member nations or regions. Among these, Thailand, Malaysia, South Korea, and Hong Kong reported established national guidelines or position statements on AFFs. Contributing risk factors include extended anti-resorptive therapy, femoral geometry, comorbidities, and specific pharmacologic exposures. Diagnosis depends on clinical suspicion and multimodal imaging, with high concordance in diagnostic criteria across regions. Screening emphasizes full-length femoral imaging in highrisk individuals. Incomplete AFFs are managed conservatively or with prophylactic fixation, while complete AFFs typically require intramedullary nailing, tailored to anatomic variations such as femoral bowing. Post-fracture care involves discontinuation of anti-resorptives, assessment for secondary osteoporosis, and potential initia tion of anabolic therapy, including teriparatide, abaloparatide, and romosozumab.This AFOS-led initiative highlights the importance for early detection, individualized management, and region-specific strategies. A multidisciplinary, patient-centered approach—encompassing risk assessment, im aging surveillance, surgical intervention, and tailored pharmacologic treatment—is crucial to reduce AFFs impact and improve skeletal health outcomes across Asia.

Objectives: The Thai Osteoporosis Foundation (TOPF) is an academic organization that consists of a multidisciplinary group of healthcare professionals managing osteoporosis. The first clinical practice guideline for diagnosing and managing osteoporosis in Thailand was published by the TOPF in 2010, then updated in 2016 and 2021. This paper presents important updates of the guideline for the diagnosis and management of osteoporosis in Thailand. Methods: A panel of experts in the field of osteoporosis was recruited by the TOPF to review and update the TOPF position statement from 2016. Evidence was searched using the MEDLINE database through PubMed. Primary writers submitted their first drafts, which were reviewed, discussed, and integrated into the final document. Recommendations are based on reviews of the clinical evidence and experts' opinions. The recommendations are classified using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation classification system. Results: The updated guideline comprises 90 recommendations divided into 12 main topics. This paper summarizes the recommendations focused on 4 main topics: the diagnosis and evaluation of osteoporosis, fracture risk assessment and indications for bone mineral density measurement, fracture risk categorization, management according to fracture risk, and pharmacological management of osteoporosis. Conclusions This updated clinical practice guideline is a practical tool to assist healthcare professionals in diagnosing, evaluating, and managing osteoporosis in Thailand.
