Acute total hip arthroplasty (THA) offers a critical solution, especially beneficial for elderly patients or those with poor bone quality. This case series presents six patients with varying medical histories, all experiencing significant hip-related injuries necessitating total hip arthroplasty (THA). Cases range from complex acetabular fractures due to falls or motor vehicle accidents to complications following previous surgical interventions. Surgical techniques adapted to each patient\u2019s specific fracture patterns and medical conditions, employing approaches such as the Extended Smith-Peterson, Kocher-Langenbeck, and modified Smith-Petersen. Outcomes were generally positive, with patients reporting significant pain relief and restored mobility.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.52965\/001c.159615","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,22]],"date-time":"2026-04-22T18:41:18Z","timestamp":1776883278000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["outcomes of acute total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the management of acetabular fractures: a case series"],"prefix":"10.52965","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Abdullah","family":"Alzahrani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ministry of the National Guard \u2013 Health Affairs, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia","department":["Department of Orthopedic Surgery"]},{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/009p8zv69","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"},{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/0149jvn88","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia","department":["College of Medicine"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ghada","family":"Alhamed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ministry of the National Guard \u2013 Health Affairs, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia","department":["Department of Orthopedic Surgery"]},{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/009p8zv69","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-6726-4366","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Abdullah","family":"Alghamdi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/009p8zv69","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"},{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/0149jvn88","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia","department":["College of Medicine"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdulrahman","family":"Alqahtani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ministry of the National Guard \u2013 Health Affairs, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia","department":["Department of Orthopedic Surgery"]},{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/009p8zv69","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raghad","family":"Alaujan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ministry of the National Guard \u2013 Health Affairs, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia","department":["Department of Orthopedic Surgery"]},{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/009p8zv69","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0006-8287-9064","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ziad","family":"Aljaafri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ministry of the National Guard \u2013 Health Affairs, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia","department":["Department of Orthopedic Surgery"]},{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/009p8zv69","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Abdullah International Medical Research Center, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia"},{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/0149jvn88","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia","department":["College of Medicine"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"30777","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,22]]},"reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1049","DOI":"10.1007\/s00590-019-02406-6","article-title":"Total hip arthroplasty for the treatment of osteoarthritis secondary to acetabular fractures treated by open reduction and internal fixation","volume":"29","author":"P., et al.
