ROHNER, Raúl; PEREZ, María Elena; REY, Rogelio  y  MENDEZ, Cecilia. Case report of an acetabular displaced physeal fracture in a 9-year-old girl treated surgically: follow-up of 5 years. Anfamed [online]. 2023, vol.10, n.1, e403.  Epub 01-Jun-2023. ISSN 2301-1254.  https://doi.org/10.25184/anfamed2023v10n1a5.

Acetabular fractures with compromise of the triradiate cartilage (TRC) in pediatric patients are very rare, difficult to diagnose and complex to treat, also can leave serious consequences. They are generally product of high energy kinematics. Due to its low prevalence, there are no large series in the literature and therefore there is no therapeutic consensus. We carried out a recapitulation of the subject regarding an atypical case of a 9-year-old girl with an acetabulum fracture with compromise of the TRC, produced by a low kinetic energy trauma. We recorded the diagnosis and surgical treatment, and also, we evaluated the clinical-radiological and functional results through the Hip Harris Score (HHS) at the end of their 5-year follow-up.
