Acetabular fractures are rarely seen in children and adolescents. This fracture usually developes after a high energy trauma and the prognosis is related to the age,the amount of deplacement of the fracture and the injury of the Y cartilage of the acetabulum. In this study we evaluated functional and radiological results of a seven years old girl with left acetabular anterior wall and nondeplaced iliac wing fracture after fall from height which is treated by traction.
Özet
Asetabulum kırığı çocuklarda ve adolesanlarda oldukça nadir görülür. Bu kırık genellikle yüksek enerjili travma sonrası ortaya çıkar ve uzun dönem prognoz hastanın kırık anındaki yaşına, asetabulum Y kıkırdağının zedelenmesine ve deplasman miktarına göre değişir. Bu çalışmada yedi yaşında kız çocuğunun yüksekten düşme sonucu gelişen, nondeplase iliak kanat kırığı ile birlikte olan sol asetabulum anterior duvar kırığının traksiyon tedavisinin sonuçları fonksiyonel ve radyolojik olarak değerlendirildi.

Abstract
Acetabular fractures are rarely seen in children and adolescents. This fracture usually developes after a high energy trauma and the prognosis is related to the age,the amount of deplacement of the fracture and the injury of the Y cartilage of the acetabulum.
