During a pao, the acetabulum is repositioned to cover more of the femoral head in order to improve the stability of the hip joint.
Pao is a surgical procedure that involves cutting the bone around the acetabulum so it is completely free from surrounding bone (the pelvis)
The acetabulum is then reoriented and reattached to the pelvis with screws.
