[The use of osteosynthesis in fractures of acetabular fossa].
The experience of operative treatment of 56 injured persons with the acetabular fossa fracture was summarized. The intraarticulational fracture with the fragments shift in more than 3 mm is an indication for the operation conduction. An optimal terms are the fourth-seventh days. Osteosynthesis was conducted using inguinal-iliacal, direct lateral iliacal-femoral approaches or Kocher-Langenbeck's incision. Cortical and spongy screws, narrow and reconstructive plates were used for fixation. Good result was noted in 84.5% of patients, fair-in 12.5%, poor-in 3%.
