[3-dimensional reconstruction of x-ray computed tomographic views in fractures of the acetabulum].
In 21 cases of acetabulum fractures of 19 patients, the authors compare the findings given by three dimensional reconstructions of axial CT scan cuts with the plain films. The number of CT scan cuts is reasonable for each patient. Working time is about 20 to 30 minutes for the technician. In the cases of complex and displaced fractures, three dimensional imaging brings often decisive informations for the therapeutic management of these patients. Unusual views are often allowed but completely adapted to each type of fracture.
