Acetabular both-column fractures: essentials of operative management.

چکیده
Acetabular both-column fractures are challenging articular injuries. They usually require operative treatment. We report on fundamental elements of pathoanatomy and radiology that are reviewed as far as they may influence treatment planning and surgical intervention. Surgical strategy, choice of the most suitable approach, reduction manoeuvres and fixation techniques are presented, together with some tips and tricks that are worth knowing in the surgical reconstruction of these difficult fractures.

In December 1961, Letournel [10] published his original series on acetabular fracture classification and operative management. Before that time, acetabular fractures were classified as those associated with posterior hip dislocation and those associated with central hip dislocation. Many were treated without surgery, resulting in poor articular congruity of the hip. Citing an increasing inciden...

Acetabular fractures in the elderly represent the most rapidly growing segment of acetabular trauma (1,2,3,4,5,6,7). The most common cause of traumatic acetabular fractures in the elderly are falls (low-energy) (1,4,6,8) and the marjority of these fractures are the result of minimal trauma regarding osteoporotic bones (1,6,8). The peak incidence of moderate trauma, resulting from a fall to the ...
