Acetabular fractures in older adults are increasing in frequency
and present unique challenges to the surgeons charged with their
treatment. This text provides the clinician tools for deciding who
is an operative candidate and reviews in detail the various
surgical treatments available for management. Opening chapters
discuss the scope of the problem, the functional status of older
patients and the risks involved with any surgical approach. After a
chapter discussing non-operative approaches to acetabular
fractures, the remaining chapters present the various surgical
techniques and include a critical assessment of the outcomes of
these treatment choices. ORIF techniques for posterior and anterior
wall and column fractures are followed by percutaneous treatment
and total hip arthroplasty, both alone and in combination with
ORIF. Presenting the most current strategies for these increasingly
common injuries, Acetabular Fractures in Older Patients is an
excellent resource for all orthopedic and trauma surgeons.
