The purpose of this study was to further evaluate the effectiveness of this technique, from a source other than its primary advocates, in patients with posterior wall acetabular fractures less than or equal to 50% who were stable on EUA and treated nonoperatively.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Design:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Retrospective case series.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Setting:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>University Level 1 Trauma Center.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Participants:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Seventeen patients with a posterior wall acetabular fracture stable on EUA treated nonoperatively.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Intervention:<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The patients were treated nonoperatively as guided by an EUA negative for instability.
