NCT06409559 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Last updated 2026-05-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The hypothesis of this study is that the Rim Plate method utilizing interfragmentary screws placed through the plate will result in superior fixation, a lower rate of loss of reduction of the fracture fragment, better anatomic healing of the articular (joint) surface, a decreased rate of early post-traumatic arthritic changes of the joint (cartilage) surface, and improved functional outcomes.

Conditions

  • Acetabular Fracture

Interventions

DEVICE

Pelvic reconstruction plate without interfragmentary screws

The posterior wall fracture will be operatively stabilized with a pelvic reconstruction plate and interfragmentary screws placed through the plate.

DEVICE

Pelvic reconstruction plate with interfragmentary screws

The posterior wall fracture will be operatively fixed with a buttress plate applied under compression without interfragmentary lag or position screws.
