Anterior wall

Anterior wall fractures are often present as part of other anterior fracture patterns.

Most isolated fractures will be treated non-operatively.

Large isolated fractures are suitable for reduction and fixation.

Surgery is urgent for irreducible dislocation and hip joint incongruity with risk of femoral head damage.

ORIF is the optimal operative treatment for most fractures. For severe arthrosis or osteoporosis, total joint replacement should be considered.
