Abstract:We investigated whether patients who underwent internal fixation for an isolated acetabular fracture were able to return to their previous sporting activities. We studied 52 consecutive patients with an isolated acetabular fracture who were operated on between January 2001 and December 2002. Their demographic details, fracture type, rehabilitation regime, outcome and complications were documented prospectively as was their level and frequency of participation in sport both before and after surgery.

Spinal disorders now can be managed appropriately with minimal morbidity with the advances of orthopaedic sciences [3][4][5][6][7] . Sport injuries are another important branch of orthopaedic surgery, which has advanced with the growing interest in fitness and sports in this age 5 .…”
