Operative treatment of acetabular fracture during pregnancy: a case report.

摘要

We present a case of operative treatment of an acetabular fracture in a pregnant patient in her third trimester. The natural fear of causing harm to the pregnancy or fetus is understandable in such situations, but should not lead to withholding appropriate care. Successful treatment of these rare cases is possible with careful pre-, peri-, and postoperative evaluation of the mother and fetus by a multidisciplinary team.
