Guest Lecture: Post Acetabular Fracture Hip Replacement

Description

The video transcript features Dr. Ramesh Sen addressing an audience at a meeting hosted by the British Indian Orthopaedic Society (BIOS). He expresses gratitude for the introduction and the opportunity to speak, sharing his long-standing connection with BIOS, reflecting back to his past contributions in meetings held in Manchester and London since 2008. Dr. Sen discusses the evolving practices in managing neglected trauma, particularly focusing on acetabular fractures and the use of total hip arthroplasty. He highlights the complexities of treating these conditions, including varying issues related to bone quality, infection risks, and surgical outcomes, particularly in a developing world's context. Additionally, he proposes a new classification framework to better capture the challenges faced in post-acetabular revisions, aiming to improve assessment and treatment strategies for these patients. Throughout the presentation, he references statistical outcomes and shares personal patient cases that illustrate both successes and the complications encountered in surgical practices. The speech culminates in a call for a comprehensive understanding of acetabular injuries and how they should be approached by surgeons, merging clinical expertise with innovative treatment protocols.
