Mid-term functional and radiological outcomes after total hip replacement performed for complications of acetabular fractures.

Objective: Acetabular fractures can lead to serious complications such as avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVN), osteoarthritis, non-union. Total hip replacement (THR) is a treatment option for these complications. The purpose of this study was to assess the functional and radiological outcomes of THR at least 5 years after the primary implantation.

Surgical site infections after stabilization of pelvic ring injuries: a retrospective analysis of risk factors and a meta-analysis of similar studies.

Purpose: Pelvic ring fractures requiring surgical stabilization are severe injuries. Surgical site infections occurring after stabilization of the pelvis are serious complications, requiring complex and multidisciplinary treatment.

Methods: This is a retrospective observational study from a level I trauma centre.
