Abstract

Acetabular fractures usually occur after high energy trauma and significant percent of these fractures need open reduction and internal fixation. Surgical approach is determined by fracture obliquity and the column which is maximally displaced [1]. Kocher-Langenbeck approach is chosen if posterior column component is maximally displaced or if an associated transverse and posterior wall fracture pattern is present and in addition to few other situations like a segmental posterior column fracture.
