Reorientation of acetabular fragment is achieved with a Weber bone clamp and Schanz screw placed in the anterior ilium above the joint to allow precise reorientation of acetabular fragment. Provisional fixation is achieved with smooth Kirschner-wires drilled from the iliac crest into the acetabular fragment. An anteroposterior full pelvis radiograph is taken to assess acetabular correction. This image confirms desired correction, with horizontal sourcil and normal version with no crossover sign or posterior wall sign. Definitive fixation is then achieved, with long cortical screws replacing the Kirchner-wires.
