An observational study in Acetabular Fracture and Pelvic Fracture, sponsored by University of Utah. Terminated at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 99 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2020-05-04.
Sponsored by University of Utah · Observational
The purpose of this prospective study is to compare hip adductor strength and obturator nerve palsy between acetabular fracture patients whose fracture was reduced and fixated using the modified Stoppa approach (subjects) and pelvic fracture patients (controls) using physical strength testing, radiographs, clinical assessment, and a validated functional outcome questionnaire. The investigators' research hypothesis is that there will be less strength and higher incidence of obturator nerve palsy in patients treated with the modified Stoppa approach (intervention) than in patients treated without the modified Stoppa approach (controls).

Pelvic fracture patients and patients treated for acetabular fractures with the modified Stoppa approach will be asked to consent to a voluntary study investigating physical function at their 2 week follow-up appointment.
Exclusion Criteria:
Outpatient physical therapy strength testing will be used to assess hip adductor strength in all participants (subjects and controls).
Time frame: 1 year follow-up after surgery
Radiographs and clinical assessment at follow-up appointments will be used to determine incidence of obturator nerve palsy in both groups (subjects and controls).
Time frame: 1 year follow-up after surgery
