<strong>Operative</strong> <strong>Technique</strong><br />

Patient Positioning<br />

Patient positioning is surgeon<br />

dependent. The patient may be<br />

positioned supine or lateral on a<br />

fracture table, or simply supine on a<br />

radiolucent table.<br />

Incision<br />

With experience, the tip of the<br />

greater trochanter can be located<br />

by palpation, and a horizontal skin<br />

incision is made from the greater<br />

trochanter to the iliac crest.<br />
