To assess the utility of three-dimensional computed tomography in classifying acetabular fractures and guiding surgical planning.
Prospective observational study involving 52 adult patients with acetabular fractures.
Patients underwent multidetector computed tomography with both 2D and 3D reconstructions.
Fractures were classified using multiple systems, and surgical approach recommendations were recorded.
Anterior column fractures were the most common subtype, comprising 32.7%.
3D reconstructions reduced interpretation time by an average of 29.08 seconds compared to 2D images (p < 0.001).
Imaging-guided surgical recommendations showed an 88.2% concordance with actual operative management.
