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 />

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 />
