ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Surgery has become gold standard to treat fracture of acetabulum.The incidence of posterior column fracture of affected acetabulum is high.The appropriate treatment for posterior column fracture of acetabulum remains controversial.OBJECTIVE:
To establish the model of posterior column fracture of acetabulum,and evaluate the stability of internal fixation with the plate and lag screw for the posterior column fracture of acetabulum.METHODS:
A total of 20 preserved cadaveric semipelvic specimens were randomly divided into two groups.Models of isolated posterior column fracture of acetabulum were established.The models were fixed with plate or lag screw.Under vertical compression load,the horizontal displacements of the fracture site were measured and the shear rigidity of two fixation conditions was compared.RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
The horizontal displacements of the fracture site fixed with plate and lag screw were (1.64±0.17) mm and (1.70±0.20) mm.The shear rigidity fixed with plate and lag screw were (392.40±41.22) N/mm and (386.33±50.07) N/mm.The differences of both horizontal displacements and shear rigidity between the two groups were not significant (P>0.05).The fracture model provides an ideal tool for biomechanical evaluation of the stability of internal fixation for the posterior column fracture of acetabulum.There was no significant difference in the stability of internal fixation with the plate and lag screw for the posterior column fracture of acetabulum.
