Patient-reported outcome following an acetabular fracture: an observational study of 385 patients from the Swedish Fracture Register
Most patients sustaining an acetabular fracture experience a decline in their functional abilities 1 year after the injury compared with before the injury. Younger patients with high-energy injuries and complex fracture types, which typically require surgical intervention, experience the most unfavorable outcomes. The large group of non-surgically treated patients reported minimal functional changes, likely attributable to selection bias.
