Background: Hip fractures rank in the top ten of all impairments worldwide in terms of loss in disabilityadjusted years for people 50+ years old
Methods: The study was carried as a retrospective study, from February 2013 to July 2014. After getting the approval from the Ethics Committee of the Institute (Annexure I) and the consent from the patients the study was conducted on 49 patients who underwent Total Hip Arthroplasty after fracture acetabulum.
Results: The mental scores were significantly higher in the group where safe range of inclination was achieved. Therefore the quality of life is dependent on the safe range of inclination.
Conclusion: We found that the patients who were treated with ORIF following the fracture acetabulum had better physical and mental scores.
