Abstract: The present invention relates to orthopedic operating tables. The table of the invention includes a stand (1) suitable for being positioned on ground (2), a base (4) mounted on the stand, and a support flap (7, 8) for supporting the trunk of a patient, the flap is connected to the base. A beam (18, 19) is pivotally mounted to the base in the proximity of the point where a person's limb joins at the trunk, with the beam being made of a material which is transparent to radiographic radiation, and the distance between the beam and the ground when the beam extends substantially parallel to the ground is greater than the height of the source required for emitting radiographic radiation from the ground. The table is particularly suitable for resetting fractures or the like on the lower limbs of a patient.
