Background: Atypical femoral fractures are the femoral fractures located anywhere between the lesser trochanterand the supracondylar flare of the femur. Long-term bisphosphonates, as the most common preventive and treatmentmedications for osteoporosis, are thought to have an important role in these fractures. Most of the fractures should betreated surgically, and the complications are considerable.Methods: We searched Medline, CENTRAL, Embase, and DART on February ۲۶, ۲۰۲۰. One author reviewed andretrieved citations from these four databases for irrelevant and duplicate studies, and two other authors independentlyextracted data from the studies and rated their quality.Patients with surgical treatment of bisphosphonate-related atypical femoral fracture, according to the American Societyfor Bone and Mineral Research definition, were included. Animal studies, case reports, studies with high-energy trauma,pathological fracture, or malignancy-related fractures were excluded.Results: In total, ۳۱۶ patients (۳۴۸ fractures) were included in this study. Mean age of patients was ۷۰.۴۷ years,and ۹۷.۵% of them were female. Duration of using bisphosphonates was ۴.۰۴ to ۸.۸ years, and Alendronate was themost common type. Moreover, ۶۵.۲۷% and ۳۴.۷۲% of the reported fractures were in diaphyseal and subtrochanteric,respectively. Moreover, the most common fixation type was intramedullary. Rate of complication was ۱۷.۵۲%, and themost frequent one was non-union, followed by implant failure. The main limitation of this research was that most of thestudies did not have a high level of evidence.Conclusion: An increase in the rate of atypical femoral fracture with its challenging management makes it an importantissue to be noted by orthopedic surgeons. Based on the results of this study, subtrochanteric fractures might have morecomplications post-operatively and are suggested to be operated on by more experienced surgeons. It was also foundthat extra-medullary fixation increases the risk of complications. Future studies on union time, outcomes of differentsurgical methods, and teriparatide therapy may help shed more light on the surgical management of these fractures.Level of evidence: III
