Surgical hip dislocation has been described as an excellent method for reduction and fixation of acetabular fractures. It allows a 360-degree access to the acetabulum and acetabular dome. However, reproducibility of this technique is still a concern. The primary outcome of this study was to investigate the short term functional and radiological outcome with the use of surgical hip dislocation in acetabular fractures. The secondary outcome was to describe different indications and methods of reduction using this technique.
