Abstract

Analysis of long term (1-10 years) results for 64 patients aged 17-70 years with various types of acetabular fractures both isolated and in combination with multiple and concomitant injuries was performed. Operations were performed by low invasive technique using 7.3 mm diameter screws with flattened thread and threaded end 2.8 mm diameter. Excellent results by Harris scale were achieved in 45 (70%), good - in 12 (19%), satisfactory - in 7 (11%) patients. Advantages of single-step percutaneous osteosynthesis of acetabulum with fixation of other segments in multiple injuries are noted.
