Application of new H-shaped anatomical titanium plate for posterior wall/posterior column acetabular fractures

To explore the effectiveness of a new H-shaped anatomical titanium plate in treatment of posterior wall/posterior column acetabular fractures. Between March 2012 and April 2019, 46 patients with acetabular fractures involving posterior wall/posterior column were treated with the new H-shaped anatomical titanium plates. There were 28 males and 18 females. The age ranged from 20 to 70 years, with an average of 45.5 years. Among the patients, 34 cases were injured by traffic accidents and 12 cases by falling from height. The time from injury to operation ranged from 2 to 14 days, with an average of 7 days. According to Letournel-Judet classification, there were 12 cases of posterior wall fractures, 1 case of posterior column fracture, 3 cases of transverse fractures, 9 cases of transverse fractures involving posterior walls, 8 cases of posterior column and posterior wall fractures, 2 cases of anterior column and posterior semi-transverse fractures, 3 cases of T-shaped fractures, and 8 cases of double column frac
