- PURPOSE
The purpose of operative treatment in acetabular fracture is to restore anatomically the disrupted joint surface and prevent post-traumatic arthritis. We analysed the relationship between the types of the fracture, its location, reduction state with the development of post-traumatic arthritis and hip joint function in postoperative period.
METHOD
& MATERIAL: A clinical analysis was performed on 14 patients, excluding patients with anterior & posterior wall fracture, with displaced acetabular fracture who had been treated by open reduction and internal fixation. All patients had been followed for minimum 1 year in our department from May 1989, to February 1999.
RESULTS
The type of acetabular fracture was not correlated statistically with posttraumatic arthritis and Harris hip score. The reduction state of acetabular fracture was significantly correlated with post-traumatic arthritis and Harris hip score. The antomic location of acetabular fracture was not correlated statistically with post-traumatic arthritis but correlated with Harris hip score.
CONCLUSION
Anatomic reduction is more significant factor in postoperative outcome of acetabular fracture than the type of fracture and the anatomic location of fracture.
