Rim Plate to Buttress Plate for Posterior Wall Acetabular Fractures With and Without Inter-fragmentary Screws

Brief 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.
