The authors report 9 cases of acetabular fracture, 6 recent complex and 3 inveterate, treated surgically through the lateral incision of Letournel. This approach provides excellent exposure of the acetabulum, the iliac wing, the posterior column, and the anterior column up to the iliopectineal eminence. Nevertheless, the high incidence of often serious complications makes the combined anterior-posterior approach preferable for severe inveterate fractures of the acetabulum.

Objective: To investigate the application experiences and effectiveness of the infra-acetabular screw (IAS) placement technique in acetabular fracture surgery.
Methods: A clinical data of 34 patients with complex acetabular fractures with anterior and posterior columns separation, who were admitted between January 2019 and October 2023 and treated with IAS fixation, was retrospectively analyzed. There were 23 males and 11 females with an average age of 55.

Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) after acetabular fracture is typically performed months or years later for posttraumatic arthritis after initial conservative treatment. But THA can be performed earlier after open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of the fracture. The aim of this study was to determine which strategy is best.

Article Synopsis
- The centrosome is crucial for cell organization, stability, and the formation of cilia, and recent findings indicate it might also be involved in local protein synthesis.
- Researchers discovered that TDP-43, an RNA-binding protein linked to neurodegenerative diseases, is localized at the centrosome throughout the cell cycle, which was confirmed through advanced imaging techniques.
- The study identifies TDP-43's interaction with centrosomal mRNAs and proteins, suggesting that its dysfunction in the centrosome may play a role in the neurodegenerative processes associated with TDP-43-related diseases.

Fractures of two columns of the acetabulum according to the Letournel classification are among the most common in frequency, indication and surgical complexity. These are mainly the result of lateral compression mechanisms and are characterized by originating a disconnected acetabulum from the axial skeleton. Its surgical treatment may include: isolated anterior or posterior approach; combined, at the same surgical time or not; or broad approaches.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the calcaneal plate bridge reconstruction for treating acetabular fractures using the modified Stoppa approach, analyzing data from 18 patients over a few years.
- The patient demographics included 12 males and 6 females aged between 28 to 63, with most injuries caused by traffic accidents, and various types of fractures classified by the Letournel-Judet system.
- Post-operative results showed a high satisfaction rate of 94.4% in reduction quality, with all fractures healing within an average of 3.4 months and no complications like internal fixator failure detected by the last follow-up.
