An acetabular fracture is a break in the socket portion of the "ball-and-socket" hip joint. These hip socket fractures are not common — they occur much less frequently than fractures of the upper femur or femoral head (the "ball" portion of the joint).
The Judet and Letournel classification system divides acetabular fractures into five elementary (or elemental) and five associated fractures, for a total of 10 fracture types. The Judet and Letournel classification system is most commonly used by orthopedic surgeons and radiologists.

The socket, called the acetabulum, is a part of your pelvis. The ball moves in the socket, allowing your leg to rotate and move forward, backward and sideways. A hip fracture is a break in either the upper portion of the femur or of the pelvis.
Overview. The hip joint is a ball and socket joint. The socket part is lined with smooth cartilage and is called the acetabulum, which is part of the pelvis. When the socket is fractured, it is called an acetabular fracture. Such fractures are far less common than fractures to the ball part of the joint.

Fracture of femur ICD-10-CM S72. 309A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
A hip fracture is a partial or complete break of the femur (thigh bone), where it meets your pelvic bone. It's a serious injury that requires immediate medical attention. Fractured hips in younger people usually occur during car accidents, long falls or other severe traumas.

On the second day following surgery for an acetabular fracture, patients are usually able to get out of bed. Crutches must be used for eight weeks following surgery, but by 12 weeks most people are able to walk unassisted.
It takes eight to 12 weeks for an acetabular fracture to heal. The outcome varies depending on the severity of the fracture, type of fracture, any other injuries sustained, your age, health history and smoking status. (Smoking can hinder the healing process and also increases your risk for complications.)
The anterior column of the acetabulum includes most of the iliac wing, the anterior acetabulum, and the superior pubic ramus. The posterior column begins at the sciatic notch and includes the posterior portion of the acetabulum and the ischium.
Depending on health and injury pattern this bone can take 3-4 months to heal without surgery. Physical therapy for hip and knee range of motion is started around 6 weeks once bone has healed enough to prevent displacement with motion.
