“…The better diagnostic tools available at present facilitated the early recognition of such complications which is largely responsible for the improvement in the mortality following such fractures. Recent studies give mortality figures of from 5-20% (Froman and Stein, 1967;Hauser and Perry, 1966;Horton and Hamilton, 1968;Peltier, 1965) compared with the previous much higher figures (Quain, 1916;Weil et al, 1939).…”

“…They may, however, be the least important of concomitant multiple injuries sustained by the effect of the fracture and/or its causative force. If the latter complications are overlooked, the results are often devastating (Conway 1935;Sullivan 1961;Trafford 1965;Weil, Price and Rusbridge, 1939). The aim of the present investigation is to study the salient features of fractures of the pelvis and their immediate consequences as seen in a developing, highly motorized country.…”

The effects of cemented acetabular components on the strains in the pelvis were determined experimentally. Four components were tested: A plain metal hemisphere; a metal hemisphere with a triflange; a hemisphere with an iliac peg; and a hemisphere with a complete flange and a peg. Loading was carried out in neutral, flexion, and extension directions. The subchondral bone was only slightly reamed, and components were cemented and tested successively. For the intact hip joint, the strains on the superior acetabular rim were much lower than those on the posterior rim. After placement of the components, the tensile strains on the rim decreased by 22-54% while the compressive strains increased by 0-25%. The bone on the medial inferior surface was subjected to 65% less tensile strain and 48% more compressive strain in neutral and extension loading. There were no great differences between the four styles of acetabular component.
