Abstract:
Acetabular fracture is an intra-articular fracture, and its treatment principle is also equivalent to that of intra-articular fracture, namely anatomical reduction of articular surface and firm fixation. Therefore, the choice of surgical approach is of great importance to the surgical exposure, reduction quality and fixation effect of acetabular fracture, which directly affects the surgical curative effect. Proper surgical approach is not only good for clear surgical exposure, easy operation, and ideal reduction quality and fixation effect, but also has great advantages in shortening the operation time, reducing intraoperative bleeding, reducing surgical trauma and avoiding surgical complications. The selection of surgical approach for acetabular fractures is closely related to the fracture injury mechanism, fracture classification, and clinical manifestations, etc.. The surgical efficacy depends on the fracture reduction quality, fixation effect, and surgical trauma degree, etc., which are closely related to the selection of surgical approach. At present, the alternative surgical approaches are generally divided into anterior approach and posterior approach. However, due to the complexity of acetabular fractures, no single surgical approach can fit all acetabular fractures, and each approach has its own indications, advantages and disadvantages.
