Long-term total hip arthroplasty rates in patients with acetabular and pelvic fractures after surgery: A population-based cohort study.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE:Osteoarthritis typically develops after surgery for traumatic fractures of the acetabulum and may result in total hip arthroplasty (THA). We conducted a population-based retrospective study to investigate the incidence of THA after treatment of acetabular, pelvic, and combined a...

description BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE:Osteoarthritis typically develops after surgery for traumatic fractures of the acetabulum and may result in total hip arthroplasty (THA). We conducted a population-based retrospective study to investigate the incidence of THA after treatment of acetabular, pelvic, and combined acetabular and pelvic fractures with open reduction-internal fixation surgery compared with that in the control group. DESIGN:A retrospective population-based cohort study. SETTING:Data were gathered from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. PARTICIPANTS:We enrolled 3041 patients with acetabular fractures, 5618 with pelvic fractures, and 733 with combined pelvic and acetabular fractures between January 1, 1997, and December 31, 2013, totaling 9392 individuals. The control group comprised 664,349 individuals. Study participants were followed up for the occurrence of THA until death or the end of the study period. RESULTS:The THA rates after surgical intervention were 17.82%, 7.28%, and 18.01% in patients with acetabular, pelvic, and combined acetabular and pelvic fractures, respectively. Moreover, they were significantly higher for the acetabular fracture, pelvic fracture, and combined-fracture groups (adjusted hazard ratios [aHRs] = 58.42, 21.68, and 62.04, respectively) than for the control group (p < 0.0001) and significantly higher for the acetabular fracture and combined-fracture groups than for the pelvic fracture group (aHRs = 2.59 and 2.68, respectively; p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION:The incidence rates of THA after surgical intervention in the pelvic fracture, acetabular fracture, and combined-fracture groups were significantly higher than that of the control group.
