RECRUITING

Rim Plate to Buttress Plate for Posterior Wall Acetabular Fractures With and Without Inter-fragmentary Screws

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The hypothesis of this study is that the Rim Plate method utilizing interfragmentary screws placed through the plate will result in superior fixation, a lower rate of loss of reduction of the fracture fragment, better anatomic healing of the articular (joint) surface, a decreased rate of early post-traumatic arthritic changes of the joint (cartilage) surface, and improved functional outcomes.

Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. 1. Skeletally mature males and females, ≥ 18 years old and with age less than 65 years.
  2. 2. Fracture of the acetabular posterior wall fracture due to acute traumatic hip dislocation, confirmed with anteroposterior pelvic or hip radiographs, and CT scan

  4. 4. Patient was ambulatory prior to fracture, with or without walking aids
  5. 5. Medically optimized for operative intervention
  6. 6. Provision of informed consent by patient or legal guardian.
  1. 1. Patients not suitable for internal fixation (severe osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or pathologic fracture).
  2. 2. Pre-existing orthopedic fixation, implant, or prosthesis around the affected acetabulum.
  3. 3. Patients with metabolic bone disease including diagnosis of osteoporosis.
  4. 4. Patients with bony or soft tissue infections around the acetabulum.
  5. 5. Patients unable to provide informed consent.
