Abstract:
Displaced acetabular fractures have given rise to difficulty to the management, It has been unique diagnostic and operative challanges for the surgeon. We made a retrospective study of hip arthroplasty in fourteen patients who had a history of previous acetabular fracture. The most of patients was sutfered from traumatic osteoarthritis, We performed two bipolar hemiarthroplasty, eleven non-cement cup and one case Charnley cup replacement were done. The purpose of this stady was to determine the outcome long-term cup. The clinical results showed that pain was most improved at foliow-up, but the incidence of radiographic loosening and revisions were higher 42.8% within 10 years. We conclude that a history of prior acetahular fracture has a significant adverse impact on the long term out come of acetabular cup in total hip arthroplasty.
