Managing Complex Pelvic Trauma
Pelvic and acetabular fractures are among the most serious injuries in orthopedics, often resulting from high-energy road accidents or falls. At Trinay Orthopedic Hospital, our surgeons specialize in the precise stabilization of these life-altering injuries. We use advanced imaging and surgical techniques to ensure optimal outcomes.

What is an Acetabular Fracture?
The acetabulum is the socket part of the "ball-and-socket" hip joint. When this socket breaks, it disrupts the joint surface. Without perfect surgical realignment, it leads to rapid hip arthritis and loss of mobility.
Our Surgical Expertise
We utilize the most advanced approaches to restore the pelvic ring and hip socket:
- Anatomical Realignment: Restoring the joint surface to within 1-2mm of accuracy.
- Rigid Fixation: Using specialized reconstruction plates and long lag screws.
- Staged Management: Initial stabilization with external frames followed by definitive internal surgery.
Critical Care Coordination
Pelvic fractures often involve internal bleeding or organ injury. We work closely with our ICU team and general surgeons to manage the patient's overall health before and after surgery.
