Long term results of surgical therapy in acetabular fractures

Abstract

Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate long term results and to determine prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgery for acetabular fractures. Methods: Of three hundred and thirty-two patients who underwent surgery for acetabular fractures between January 1970 and January 1998, 240 patients (186 males, 54 females; mean age 17 years; range 15-81 years) with adequate follow-up data were included. The mean period between the traumatic event and the last follow-up examination was 11.2 years (range 2-26 years). According to the classification of Letournel and Judet, 163 fractures (68%) were simple and 77 (32%) were of compound type. Central, posterior, and anterior dislocations occurred in 45.8%, 38.4%, and 15.8% of fractures, respectively. Results: At the last follow-up examination, excellent, good, fair, and poor functional results were obtained in 96 (40%), 96 (40%), 12 (5%), and 36 (15%) patients, respectively. Radiologic results were excellent in 45%, good in 21.7%, fair in 18.3%, and poor in 15%. Statistical analyses revealed that significant prognostic factors included mean period between the trauma and operation (p=0.05), damage to the femoral head (p=0.01), and the quality of anatomic reduction (p=0.009). Conclusion: We obtained satisfactory results in 192 of 240 hips (80%) by surgical therapy, aiming an excellent anatomic reduction in order to prevent late secondary osteoarthrosis. Similar results are reported in the literature by experienced surgical teams after long follow-up periods. Both in our series and in some other in the literature, no statistical significance between clinical and radiologic results have been found.
