Behind closed doors. Detecting Posterior Acetabular Fractures in Adolescence.
Purpose or Case Report: The purpose of the exhibit is: 1. Illustrate the presence of multiple and accessory ossification centers about the hip that can make it challenging to diagnosis fractures on radiographs in adolescence. 2. Demonstrate that posterior acetabular fractures are typically hidden behind the femoral head on radiographs. 3. Review variant os acetabuli that are commonly encountered in patients with hip pain and demonstrate that the orientation of the fragments compared with posterior acetabular fractures can help to make a distinction. 4. Highlight that a complete pelvis radiograph (AP or AP/Frog leg lateral) in trauma patients or hip pain NOS can aid in the detection of fractures and assess for asymmetry of normal variants.
