Potentialities of Surgical Treatment for Acetabular Fractures Using Low-Invasive Techniques

Original technique of percutaneous osteosynthesis was applied for the treatment of 24 patients with acetabular columns fractures. The achieved results were compared to the results of osteosynthesis performed using open direct reposition of bone fragments (39 patients). The efficacy of low-invasive surgery in acetabular column fractures with regard to provision of fragments consolidation, prevention of femoral head aseptic necrosis development and achievement of early medical and social rehabilitation of patients was showed. Maintenance of fragments blood supply, use of minimal surgical approach and closed reposition are considered to be the progressive direction of internal osteosynthesis development.
