Conventional techniques according to Letournel show the lesions but not to the best advantage, for instance the "congruency" of femoral head with acetabulum. 54 CT scan were performed (1982-1984) every time a doubt was persisting. Incarcerations of fragments, impactions of the acetabulum, sacro-iliac joint disjunctions, congruency and lesions of femoral head are much better seen with scanner. In planing the surgical therapy (or orthopedic), CT scan add a great deal to the information and dramatically improves the results. | lld:pubmed |
