Abstract
Transverse and T-type acetabular fractures are high energy fractures that may be associated with a disruption of the pelvic ring. While several studies report upon clinical findings and outcomes associated with combination injuries of the pelvic ring and acetabulum, there are limited reports discussing surgical treatment strategies for reduction and stabilization. Herein we focus on describing reduction and stabilization techniques of transverse or transverse-variant acetabular fractures with an associated ipsilateral partial disruption of the sacroiliac joint.Entities:
