    Main Results:

    • Radiological examination is essential for diagnosing and planning treatment for acetabular fractures.
    • Associated injuries frequently impact the selection of therapeutic methods.
    • Correction of hip displacement within 48 hours is vital for preventing femoral head necrosis.

    Conclusions:

    • Acetabular fractures require careful radiological assessment and consideration of associated injuries.
    • Timely intervention, specifically correcting hip displacement within 48 hours, is paramount to prevent avascular necrosis of the femoral head.
