Surgical management of acetabular fractures in older patients remains controversial. The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes of primary THA with outcomes after THA for acute acetabular fractures (aTHA) as well as outcomes following delayed THA (dTHA) following prior acetabular fracture. We analyzed data from a large, national administrative claims database containing diagnostic, procedural, and demographic records from over 157 million patients. We identified all patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty THA continuously enrolled in the database at least 2 years prior and after the index procedure. Patients with an initial diagnostic code for acetabular fracture occurring the same day as the THA were classified as acute acetabular fractures. Patients with an initial acetabular fracture diagnostic code occurring at least 6 months before THA were classified as chronic acetabular fractures. The comparator group was patients undergoing THA with no history of acetabular fracture. There were 426,734 patients undergoing primary THA, 235 patients undergoing aTHA and 1,255 patients undergoing dTHA. Patients with an aTHA had higher complication rates, including revisions (9.8% vs 5.6%,), dislocations (8.9% vs 6.4%), and periprosthetic fracture (5.1% vs 2.3%) compared to dTHA. After adjusting for age, sex, region, and comorbidities, receiving an aTHA increased the odds of revision (OR = 3.65 [95% CI: 2.30–5.49]), dislocation (OR = 4.09 [95% CI: 2.53–6.27]), and periprosthetic fracture (OR = 4.29 [95% CI: 2.26–7.36]) compared to primary THA. Receiving a dTHA significantly increased the odds of revision (adjusted OR = 1.80 [95% CI: 1.40–2.27]), dislocation (adjusted OR = 2.50 [95% CI: 1.97–3.13]), and periprosthetic fracture (adjusted OR = 1.99 [95% CI: 1.34–2.83]) compared to primary THA. Patients undergoing aTHA in the treatment of an acetabular fracture have significantly increased rates of revision, periprosthetic fracture, and dislocation compared to dTHA and primary THA.
