Acute total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a reasonable treatment option for older patients with an acetabular fracture and risk factors for a poor outcome, but it is only described in case series. The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes of ORIF and acute THA in middle-aged patients with an acetabular fracture from a single center.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Retrospective case-controlled study of patients aged 45 to 65 years old with acetabular fractures involving the posterior wall treated with acute THA or ORIF at a level 1 trauma center between 1996 and 2011. Patients were matched by fracture pattern and age at a 2 (ORIF):1 (acute THA) ratio.

The average Oxford Hip Score in the acute THA group was 44 compared to 40 in the ORIF group (P = .075). Complication rates were similar between both the groups. Twelve hips (37%) in the ORIF group had undergone THA or been referred for THA, and 2 revisions (13%) had occurred in the acute THA group. A Kaplan\u2013Meier survival analysis showed that those undergoing acute THA had significantly better survival of their index procedure (<jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P\u200a=\u200a<\/jats:italic>.031).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Both ORIF and acute THA for high-energy acetabular fractures involving the posterior wall in middle-aged patients can provide excellent results, with acute THA patients achieving improved survival of the index procedure and improved functional scores.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1097\/oi9.0000000000000014","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,3]],"date-time":"2019-03-03T05:44:30Z","timestamp":1551591870000},"page":"e014","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Acute total hip arthroplasty versus open reduction internal fixation for posterior wall acetabular fractures in middle-aged patients"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"2","author":[{"given":"Lauren M.","family":"MacCormick","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Minnesota, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Minneapolis, Minnesota"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carol A.","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopedic Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, California"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jerald R.","family":"Westberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedic Surgery, Hennepin County Medical Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrew H.","family":"Schmidt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedic Surgery, Hennepin County Medical Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David C.","family":"Templeman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orthopaedic Surgery, Hennepin County Medical Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-20230823","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"205","DOI":"10.1097\/00003086-199909000-00027","article-title":"Acetabular fractures.
