Abstract:
Objective:To compare the perioperative data between the pararectus and ilioinguinal approaches in the internal fixation of acetabular fractures.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted to enroll 74 patients with acetabular fracture who were admitted to Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2018 to January 2021. They were randomly divided into 2 groups. In group A of 37 cases, there were 28 males and 9 females with an age of (55.8±15.2) years, and 10 anterior column fractures, 7 anterior+posterior hemi-transverse fractures, one transverse fracture, 3 T-shaped fractures and 16 both column fractures according to Letournel-Judet classification. In group B of 37 cases, there were 28 males and 9 females with an age of (49.4±14.6) years, and 8 anterior column fractures, 6 anterior+ posterior hemi-transverse fractures, 2 transverse fractures, 2 T-shaped fractures and 19 both column fractures according to Letournel-Judet classification. Group A was subjected to open reduction and plate fixation via the pararectus approach while group B to open reduction and plate fixation via the ilioinguinal approach. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative reduction and perioperative complications.Results:There were no significant differences in baseline data between the 2 groups, showing comparability between them ( P>0.05). The operation time in group A [150 (120, 180) min] was significantly shorter than that in group B [180 (150, 225) min] ( P<0.05). There were no significance differences between the 2 groups in intraoperative blood loss [800 (600, 1, 000) mL versus 1, 000(600, 1, 300) mL], rate of good to excellent reduction [91.9%(34/37) versus 78.4%(29/37)], or incidence of complications [24.3%(9/37) versus 45.9%(17/37)] ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the ilioinguinal approach, the pararectus approach can reduce operation time significantly in the internal fixation of acetabular fractures.
