title: [Anterior column fracture of the acetabulum with dorsal impression. Operative management by means of surgical dislocation of the hip].
abstract: An unusual case of an anterior column fracture of the acetabulum with extended marginal impaction at the posterior column is presented. Fracture fixation was primarily performed by an ilioinguinal approach followed by a posterior approach with surgical dislocation of the hip to reduce the impacted fragments.
