Evaluation of Modified Stoppa Approach in Acetabulum Fractures

Our experience with Modified Stoppa approach for surgical treatment of acetabulum fracture in 30 patients is excellent and effective for better visualization to anterior column quadrilateral plate and up to sacroiliac joint. This approach provides better visibility of the fracture site which allows for good to an excellent reduction of fracture and fixation. Although Stoppa approach is cosmetic surgery in terms of scar size there is less complication rate than the ilioinguinal approach.
