Abstract
Antegrade fixation of posterior column fractures of the acetabulum is challenging due to the narrow corridor and risk of screw misplacement. Although both antegrade and retrograde lag screws have been previously described for posterior column fracture fixation, the literature lacks a standardized technique for correct and safe screw placement, especially in an antegrade fashion. This technical note aims to optimize intraoperative images during posterior screw insertion using the antegrade technique, according to predetermined landmarks to save surgical time, decrease radiation exposition, and prevent surgical complications.
