- Recently, atypical femoral fractures (AFFs) have been found in patients who were prescribed bisphosphonate to prevent osteoporotic fractures. Although the occurrence of AFF is rare, there are some concerns, such as a higher risk of delayed or non-union of AFF. This paper reviews the treatment of AFF and suggests some considerations during surgery.

- PURPOSE
Change in sexual activity after acetabular fracture has not been elucidated to date. Hence, the purpose of this study was to reveal: (1) how acetabular fracture affects the status of sexual activity; (2) how acetabular fracture affects patient satisfaction about sexual activity; and (3) what are the concerns of patients regarding sexual activity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2014 and December 2014, a self-reported questionnaire was conducted with patients who had been sexually active before the treatment for acetabular fracture. Out of the nineteen patients who participated in the questionnaire, twelve men and three women were included for final analysis; patients who were treated conservatively were excluded. RESULTS All patients had hip pain (mean visual analogue scale score, 2.9; range, 1-7) at 1 year after the trauma. Fourteen patients (93.3%, 14/15) resumed sexual activity within 1 year (mean, 3.9 months; range, 2–6 months). After excluding one patient who did not recover to allow sexual activity, the frequency of sex was decreased in 11 patients (78.6%, 11/14). Sexual satisfaction was decreased in seven patients (46.7%, 7/15). Old age was associated with decreased sexual satisfaction. CONCLUSION Half of the patients showed a decreased satisfaction from sexual activity after acetabular fracture, with hip pain being the most common problem. Although our study was a small, single-center study, it provides information regarding sexual activity of patients after acetabular fracture.
