Xian–quan W et al. – There are three ways to avoid screw penetration of the hip joint. The first one is to use the long screw. Its entry point is placed as close to pelvic brim as possible, and the entry direction is parallel to the quadrilateral surface. The second one is to use the short screws whose lengths are 14, 12 and 10 mm and locate them in the region between the pelvis brim and 0.5–cm entry point, between 0.5– and 1.0–cm entry point, between 1.0– and 1.5–cm entry point, respectively, regardless of the direction of the screw placement. The third one is to take quadrilateral surface as a reference plane, and adjust the medial angulation of the screw placement according to different target locations.
