**7.4. Anterior column with posterior hemitransverse fracture**

The fracture line usually extends from antero-inferior iliac spine and passes inferiorly through the cotyloid fossa exiting at the superior ramus disrupting the obturator foramen. A pure transverse fracture of the posterior column alone is seen with it. It is sometimes referred as reverse T-fracture. Usually the transverse component will be undisplaced. The ilipectineal line will be always disrupted. Obturator oblique view is the most ideal view to pick up this fracture in radiograph. CT scan helps to distinguish it from transverse and T- fractures.
