Acetabular fractures are uncommon injuries with motor vehicle collision being the most common cause of injury. Posterior wall fracture was the most frequent pattern, and most of the patients were males. The incidence of post-traumatic sciatic nerve palsy and the proportion of injured women were lower than those reported in literature. Well-trained surgeons and specialized centres for treating these injuries are recommended.
