Abstract
Objective: This study evaluated the functional outcome of patients with acetabular injuries using the Majeed pelvic score. The specific objectives were to assess any differences in functional outcomes among patients treated early versus delayed surgery and those with or without concomitant injuries. Methodology: Patients from our institution, Baguio General Hospital and Medical Center, with acetabular injuries from January 2019 to December 2022, were investigated. Patients with acetabular fractures with or without other injuries were included. All available data sources were reviewed, such as charts from hospital records, patient census, and electronic medical records. Patients underwent physical therapy before discharge and were followed up. The patients’ outcomes after surgical intervention were assessed using Majeed's pelvic score Results: Thirteen patients were included in the study with follow-ups ranging from one to three years. A functional assessment using Majeed's pelvic score with a mean of 83 points (range 72–100). The majority had good functional outcomes. Conclusions: Early surgical intervention may have no advantage over delayed surgeries regarding functional outcomes. However, concomitant injuries and complications may contribute to a poor to fair functional outcome.
