Abstrakt:	Objective: Associated both column acetabular fractures (OTA/AO 62C) with concomitant posterior wall fracture fragments (ABC + PW) have not been well-defined. The purpose of this study was to report on the incidence and morphology of ABC + PW fractures. Methods: A retrospective review of associated both column (ABC) fractures between 2014 and 2020 was performed. Computed tomography scans including 3-D surface rendered reformats for each were reviewed to determine whether a posterior wall (PW) fragment was present and its morphologic characteristics. Results: One hundred fifty-two ABC fractures were identified. Sixty-two fractures (41%) were identified as ABC + PW. 3D-computed tomographies were available on 58 fractures. Morphologic analysis was performed based on the relationship of the fracture to the gluteal pillar. Twenty PW fragments were posterior to the gluteal pillar, 19 extended into the gluteal pillar, and 19 extended anterior. Fifty-two fractures were treated with operative fixation; 32 (62%) were clamped and fixed with screws from the same anterior approach whereas 15 (29%) required a separate posterior approach; and no fixation was placed in 5 (9%). 29 of 32 PW fragments (91%) requiring fixation that extended into or anterior to the pillar were fixed from the anterior approach, and 7 of 15 posterior fractures (47%) required a separate posterior approach. Conclusions: A separate PW fragment was identified in 41% of ABC fractures. Their variation in morphology can be classified into 3 types based on the relation to the gluteal pillar that has potential implications for treatment from the anterior approach compared with requiring a separate posterior approach. We suggest these data could be used to update the 2018 OTA/AO Fracture Compendium. Level of Evidence: Prognostic Level IV.
