Aims. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between fracture displacement and survivorship of the native hip joint without conversion to a total hip arthroplasty (THA), and to determine predictors for conversion to THA in patients treated nonoperatively for

The aim of this study was to record the incidence of post-traumatic
osteoarthritis (OA), the need for total hip arthroplasty (THA),
and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) after surgery for
a fracture of the acetabulum, in our centre. All patients who underwent surgery for an acetabular fracture
between 2004 and 2014 were included. Patients completed the 36-Item
Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and the modified Harris Hip Score
(mHHS) questionnaires. A retrospective chart and radiographic review
was performed on all patients. CT scans were used to assess the classification
of the fracture and the quality of reduction.Aims
