Acetabular fractures treated surgically: Which of the parameters affect prognosis.

CONCLUSION: It was found that three major parameters affecting the prognosis of acetabular fractures are as follows: type of fracture, operational time and reduction quality. The duration between trauma and operation indirectly affects the outcomes. Avascular necrosis, heterotopic ossification and arthritis may cause negative effects only on long term outcomes.
