Acetabular fractures commonly occurred in young adult patient who suffered from high impact trauma which often associated with life threatening injuries. Displaced acetabular fractures lead to abnormal distribution on joint cartilage pressures. It produces early cartilage disruption and development of premature osteoarthritis at the hip. Anatomical reduction and fixation operation in acetabulum fractures still a major challenges due to its complications such as poor functional outcome after surgery. Despite its difficulty to predict the outcomes of acetabular fractures surgeries, functional outcomes scoring such as Oxford Hip Score (OHS) and Harris score may help surgeon to measure long term outcome following acetabular fractures. A total of 13 patients were treated over period of January 2018 until March 2019 in Saiful Anwar General Hospital Malang. The mean age of patients in this serial case is 37 years old and were operated within 2 weeks of injury. All the patients undergone an ORIF (Open Reduction Internal Fixation) operation and observed for the OHS and also Harris score 6 months following surgeries to measure functional outcome of the patients. The mean score of OHS in this serial case is 41 (satisfactory joint function) and the mean score of harris hip score is 91 (excellent). Some patients experience pain during activities, tingling sensation after standing in some periods of time, and heaviness when taking stairs 6 months after operation. This results conclude that the preoperative, operative and post operative management of patient with acetabular fracture in Saiful Anwar Hospital has satisfactory results.

The current study is a prospective study on the functional outcome of open reduction and internal fixation of acetabular fractures. About 30 patients were analyzed for the functional outcome of acetabular fractures treated by open reduction and internal fixation over a period of one year and eight months from March 2017 to October 2018 with a minimum follow up period of 9 months at Sree Balaji Medical College & Hospital, Chromepet, Chennai. The mean age of the patient was 37.96 year ranging from 20 - 60 years. The Joel Matta score was used for calculation of radiological outcome of 30 patients. The results were excellent in 19 (66.3%), good in 8 (26.6%), fair in 3 (10%), and poor in 0 (0%) patients. Functional outcome of displaced acetabular fractures more than 2 mm displacement was found to have excellent results on open reduction and internal fixation.

Proximal humerus fractures account for about 4% to 5% of all fractures. Following distal forearm fracture, proximal humeral fracture is the second most common upper extremity fracture. Kirschner (K)-Wires, external fixation, tension band wiring, and rush pins, intramedullary nails, ORIF with plates, and shoulder hemiarthroplasty have all been offered as therapeutic options. The purpose of this study was to assess the functional outcome and complication rates following internal fixation of proximal humerus fractures using a locking compression plate. Patients over the age of 18 with closed proximal humerus fractures or open proximal humerus fractures (Gustilo and Anderson type I, Type II) received open reduction and internal fixation with locking compression plate in the current study. The participants in this study were 60 people who had a proximal humerus fracture and were treated with open reduction and a proximal humerus locking compression plate. Patients ranged in age from 20 to 85 years old, with a mean age of 51.14 +/- 17.30 years. The age group 36–55 years (37 percent) was the most prevalent, followed by 56–75 years (30 %). The majority of patients (76.7 %) were men who had been in automobile accidents on the right side (83 %) (63 %). According to the Neer classification, the most prevalent type of fracture was a three-part fracture (53 %). The maximum union time observed in this study was 16 weeks, with a minimum of 10 weeks. The average time to union is 12.52 +/- 1.14 weeks. The mean flexion at the end of six months was 121.660 +/- 19.84. The mean internal rotation was 57.330 +/- 8.48, the mean external rotation was 530 +/- 11.98, and the mean abduction was 1180 +/- 19.36. 75.28 +/- 9.66 [Mean +/- SD] is the Mean Constant score. Pain 14.10, ADL 18.26, range of motion 22.46, and power 20 were the mean scores observed on Constant Score for its various aspects. According to the Constant score, the functional outcome of the 60 patients was as follows: 8 patients had excellent outcomes (13%), 34 patients had good outcomes (56.7%), 16 patients had moderate outcomes (26.7%), and two patients had poor outcomes (26.7%) and (3 %). Internal fixation of proximal humerus fractures with a locking compression plate results in anatomical reduction and secure fixation, resulting in a favorable functional outcome.
