Secondary surgery and mortality following primary treatment for acetabular fractures – an observational study from Swedish national quality registers
This observational nationwide register study on acetabular fractures shows that surgically treated patients have a relatively high reoperation rate. Younger patients are predominately treated with ORIF and display low mortality rates. Older patients with complex fracture patterns may benefit from primary treatment with THA/CHP being more frequently performed compared to prevailing practice.
