Outcome of Open Reduction Internal Fixation versus Percutaneous Screw Fixation for Fractures of the Acetabulum A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Abstract

he acetabulum is composed of the iliopubic column (anterior column) extends from the superior iliac crest to the pubic symphysis. The thicker structure is the ilioischial column (posterior column) extends from the inferior sacroiliac joint and sciatic notch to the ischial tuberosity. The Judet-Letournel classification system remains the most widely accepted. Which classify the acetabular fractures to five elementary and five associated fractures. Although radiographic examination provides essential information for acetabular classification, CT, including multiplanar reconstruction, is helpful in the visualization of complex fractures.
