Acetabular Distraction versus Cup-Cage Construct in the Management of Chronic Pelvic Discontinuity: A Comparative Study

2026Open accessAin Shams University

Abstract

Both acetabular distraction and the cup-cage construct techniques may be used to treat pelvic discontinuity without any significant difference in the clinical outcomes, as measured by Harris hip score, and in the radiological outcomes. Acetabular distraction appears to be more effective in treating discontinuity as a secondary outcome of neglected acetabular fracture.
