Management of Complex Pelvic Fractures Associated With Acetabulum Injury: Case Series

Comprehensive emergency management and early stabilization are pivotal in treating complex pelvic and acetabular fractures. Surgical treatment of displaced Pelvi-acetabular fractures has evolved from conservative to operative treatment. In the current study, we presented a series of thirty cases involving complex pelvic fractures as well as acetabular injuries, emphasizing the significance of comprehensive emergency management and appropriate intervention. As a result of the present case series, we highlight, the crucial role of a comprehensive operative plan that differentiates among patients based on their general condition, the available resources and the surgeon's preference. Central to our approach was the utilization of the Stoppa and Kocher-Langenbach techniques for internal fixation, demonstrating their efficacy in addressing these challenging fractures. The findings of the current series, reveal that, the functional outcome correlated well with the quality of reduction. Also, we recommended that the Stoppa and Kocher-Langenbach techniques be used as an effective treatment approach to address these complex fracture’s.
