Reduction of postoperative CT artifacts of pelvic fractures by use of titanium implants.

Abstract

The value of CT scanning for both preoperative and postoperative assessment of pelvic and acetabular fractures has been demonstrated. Previous attempts at our institution to obtain useful pelvic CT scans following internal fixation with stainless steel implants have been impaired by metal artifacts that degraded the transaxial CT images. Our use of titanium, instead of stainless steel implants, produced identical fixation and ultimate fracture healing, but yielded minimal artifacts. We recommend the use of titanium implants as substitutes for stainless steel implants in pelvic fixation to maximize the information obtained on subsequent CT exams.
