Introduction
Usually combination with other
serious or life-threatening
injuries
Musculoskeletal
Respiratory
Central nervous
Gastrointestinal
Urologic
Cardiovascular systems
The management requires
concomitant diagnosis and
treatment of the other
systemic and musculoskeletal
injuries
Osteoligamentous
Anatomy
Assessment
M.I.S.T
An accurate history
Fractures due to highenergy trauma
motor-vehicle accidents,
falls from height,
crushing injuries;
Mechanisms of Injury
High-energy fractures:
motor vehicle, 57%; pedestrian, 18%;
motorcycle, 9%; falls from heights, 9%; and
crush, 4%
often result in two or more fractures of the pelvic
ring
AP force, lateral impacts, vertical shear
Penetrating mechanisms: associated visceral
and neurovascular injuries
Mechanisms of Injury
Low-energy fractures isolated fractures
do not damage the true integrity of the ring
structure
domestic falls: "straddle" injury from a fall in the
bathtub elderly population
avulsion injuries of the muscle apophyses in
skeletally immature patients.
Secondary survey
Grey tuner sign: bruises at the flank area that indicate the
retroperitoneal bleeding
Morel-Lavalle lesion
-Tenderness or instability
Abdominal evaluation
DPL
CT Scan
Focused Abdominal
Sonogram for trauma
Experienced hands
DPL or CT
Diagnosis of Instability
Prevent repeated
manipulation
displace clot, greater
blood loss, neurologic
injury !!!!
Radiologic Assessment
Plain Radiography
AP
Inlet
Outlet
Computed Tomography

Methods
Reduction
put the patient on lateral side
Internal rotation with the femur as a
fulcrum
Fixation
Pelvic sling
Hip spica
Operative
External fixation
Internalfixation
Application
Pelvic clamp
External frame plus supracondylar femoral traction
- reduces the pelvic volume,
- partially stabilizes the bones and soft tissues,
- reduces the amount of bleeding and pain
- easier nursing care.
External Fixation
1. Pelvic Clamp
Controversy
Whether they should be applied before or after
laparotomy.
The conventional wisdom there is to apply the
frame first and then proceed to laparotomy and
pelvic packing when possible (Europe)
Discusses among all trauma team
Number of complications
Often require extensive rehabilitation
0.3% to 6% of all fractures
Occur in 20% of all polytrauma cases.
Bimodal distribution 15 to 30 and 50 to 70 years
Men : women 57% to 75%
mortality rates range from 6.4% to 30%,5
