Resumen
FERNANDEZ-PALOMO, LJ y GONZALEZ-POLA, R. Letournel ilioinguinal approach in the management of acetabular fractures. Acta ortop. mex [online]. 2023, vol.37, n.1, pp.44-49. Epub 11-Mar-2024. ISSN 2306-4102. https://doi.org/10.35366/112813.
The ilioinguinal approach described by Emile Letournel in 1961 allows an extensive exposure of the anterior elements of the pelvis and acetabular fractures involving the anterior wall and/or column, pubic symphysis, and sacroiliac joint. It also facilitates a rapid recovery of muscle function and leaves a cosmetic scar.
