25 maj 2021 · Ilium fractures are high energy pelvic fractures that are often unstable and typically progress from the iliac crest to the greater sciatic notch. Diagnosis can made with pelvis radiographs but frequently require pelvic CT scan for full characterization.
4 wrz 2023 · In the case of a displaced sacral fracture and neurological deficit in a low-energy trauma, sacral decompression followed by surgical fixation is indicated. This consensus collects expert opinion about this topic and may guide the surgeon in choosing the best treatment for these patients.
Abstract. At the cornerstone of the pelvis and spine, the sacrum may be fractured in patients of all ages. Sacral fractures range from high-energy injuries, with mortality rates of up to 18%, to low-energy insufficiency fractures. The intricate geometry of the sacrum, the breadth of morphotypes, and the presence of congenital anomalies all can ...
Sacral fractures are a heterogeneous group of fractures occurring in young people following road traffic accidents and falls from height, or in the elderly with osteoporosis following trivial trauma.
Stable fracture. In this type of fracture, there is often only one break in the pelvic ring, and the broken ends of the bones line up adequately. Low-energy fractures are often stable fractures. Stable pelvic fracture patterns include: Iliac wing fracture; Sacrum fracture; Superior pubic ramus fracture; Inferior pubic ramus fracture
5 lip 2024 · Pelvic ring fractures are high energy fractures of the pelvic ring which typically occur due to blunt trauma. Diagnosis is made radiographically with pelvic radiographs and further characterized with CT scan. Treatment is typically operative fixation depending on degree of pelvis instability, fracture displacement and patient activity demands.
