Accordingly, Dr. Le Quang Huy - Head of the Department of Orthopedic Trauma Surgery - Cranial Neurology (Hong Ngoc General Hospital - Phuc Truong Minh) with Prof. Dr. Dietmar Krappinger, Prof. Dr. Werner Schmölz (Medical University of Innsbruck, Austria), Dr. Axel Gänsslen (Medical University of Hannover, Germany) and colleagues researched the topic: "Comparison of biomechanics of techniques for fixation of double-column acetabular fractures requiring a single incision (anterior or posterior) compared to a combined anterior-posterior incision".
After a rigorous review process of content, scientific validity and practical value, the research was approved and published in the international journal Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery (AOTS - Germany). At the same time, it was posted on the online library PubMed developed by the US National Library of Medicine (NLM). These are two prestigious medical databases. worldwide with tens of millions of scientific articles, providing knowledge and updating new treatment methods and research in the medical field, a standard reference source for doctors, researchers and medical students worldwide.
The study was published in the international journal Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery (Germany).
The focus of the report is to compare the stability of the acetabulum and the mobility of the hip joint after surgical fixation of the fracture using 1 locking plate - 1 trans-columnar compression screw with the method using 2 locking plates. The choice of technique depends on the experience of the surgeon, the extent of the injury and the specific condition of the patient.
According to Dr. Le Quang Huy, the acetabulum plays a particularly important role in the structure of the hip joint, being the main force-bearing point that helps ensure the motor function of the lower limb. "Fractures involving the articular surface of the acetabulum are often severe injuries. If not treated properly, the hip joint may degenerate early with stiffness or femoral head atrophy, seriously affecting the ability to move. Choosing a surgical method not only needs to ensure the stability of the fracture, but also needs to be minimally invasive, save surgical time, limit blood loss and avoid changing the patient's position" - Dr. Huy said.
Therefore, in the study, experts have come up with the solution: "Acetabular fusion surgery using the technique of fixing 1 plate 1 transcolumnar compression screw is the optimal method for many complex acetabular fractures involving two columns. With only 1 incision (Stoppa or Kocher-Langenbeck) but still fix and ensure the stability of the hip joint, restore the original acetabular structure, limit damage to the tendons and muscles around the joint, help the bone heal quickly, recover early and reduce the risk of post-operative complications. The research results once again confirm the safety and practical effectiveness of this method, opening up better recovery opportunities for patients" - Dr. Huy shared more.

The study provides an objective perspective on complex acetabular fracture treatment techniques, supporting doctors in choosing the optimal surgical method - effective, saving time and costs for patients. This event not only helps Vietnamese doctors improve their research and surgery level based on international scientific evidence, but also contributes to expanding the academic network between Vietnam and Europe.
Notably, this research project also marks a new development in the international cooperation relationship between Hong Ngoc General Hospital and a team of European experts. Previously, in August 2025, within the framework of the workshop "Application of C-arm irradiation in orthopedic trauma surgery practice", Hong Ngoc General Hospital had the opportunity to cooperate with Prof. Dr. Dietmar Krappinger through the report: "Acetabular fracture: Imaging diagnosis and surgery under irradiation guidance for complex cases" and live reporting of spinal surgery, opening up opportunities for direct learning and professional exchange between Vietnamese doctors and European experts.
Dr. Le Quang Huy and Prof. Dr. Dietmar Krappinger exchanged expertise at the workshop "Application of C-arm light-increasing screen in orthopedic trauma surgery practice".
Through the cooperation process, Prof. Dr. Dietmar Krappinger highly appreciated the learning spirit, the eagerness to learn and the professionalism of the medical team of Hong Ngoc General Hospital. He expressed his belief that the cooperation between the two sides will continue to be maintained for a long time, aiming at research projects and transferring modern methods, aiming for the health of patients .
The event of publishing research on AOTS and PubMed is a testament to Hong Ngoc General Hospital's pioneering position in the field of orthopedics. These efforts not only contribute to improving the professional capacity of the medical team, but also affirm Hong Ngoc's commitment in the journey of bringing Vietnamese medicine to international standards and improving the quality of treatment.
