Core Tip Treatment of geriatric acetabular fractures is a challenging clinical problem that has recently gained significant attention within the orthopaedic community. Whilst non-operative management is a used treatment strategy, surgery in the form of either osteosynthesis or combination of osteosynthesis and acute total hip arthroplasty is currently extensively performed. The orthogeriatric co-management of the fragile patients who have sustained an acetabular fracture is essential and of paramount importance.
