BACKGROUND: Both-column fracture is a common type of acetabular fracture and is sometimes accompanied by a comminuted fracture of the quadrilateral area. Such fractures are difficult to anatomically reduce and securely fix. In this study, the authors compared the application value and mechanical properties of the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates and Union Plate in acetabular both-column fractures. METHODS: A both-column fracture model of the acetabulum was established, and the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates, Union Plate and a common reconstruction plate were used for fixation. External loads were applied to the model at different angles, and the effects on the plates and the stress and displacement of the screws were determined. RESULTS: Under different states of hip joint activity, the maximum stress experienced by the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates and Union Plate was significantly smaller than the maximum stress experienced by the common reconstruction plate. The Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates experienced the lowest maximum stress under different hip joint motions. There was no statistically significant difference between the maximum displacement of the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates and Union Plate and that of the common reconstructed plate. CONCLUSIONS: The design of the Bespoke 3D-printed titanium alloy plates imparts a smaller maximum stress and better mechanical properties when repairing acetabular both-column fractures.
