Tosounidis, TH, Mauffrey, C and Giannoudis, PV (2018) Optimization of technique for insertion of implants at the supra-acetabular corridor in pelvis and acetabular surgery. European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, 28 (1). pp. 29-35. ISSN 1633-8065
Abstract
The technique for application of implants at the sciatic buttress has been well described in the pelvic and acetabular fracture reconstruction literature. We described a new use of the inlet–obturator oblique view for the identification of the anterior inferior iliac spine, which is the entry point of implants, and we provide a detailed fluoroscopic and radiographic description of this view. A small series of 15 patients who underwent an application of an anterior inferior pelvic external (supra-acetabular) fixator via this technique is presented. We consider the use of the obturator oblique for the identification of the entry point unnecessary, and we advocate for the use of only the inlet–obturator oblique and iliac oblique views when implants are applied to the sciatic buttress.
