The patient is positioned on a radiolucent operating table in a supine position with a bump (height of 9 to 10 cm) under the sacrum to elevate the pelvis while allowing the ipsilateral buttock adipose tissue to hang free over the side of the operating table. A foot bump can be placed at the level of the calf. The contralateral leg should be well padded and taped to the bed.
