An unstable pelvic ring. The killing fracture.
©2006 British Editorial Society of Bone and Joint Surgery doi:10.1302/0301-620X.88B4. 16693 $2.00 J Bone Joint Surg [Br] 2006; 88-B:427-33. An unstable pelvic fracture may be life threatening and can be seen as ‘the killing’ fracture. Even if this is the only injury, it may be a serious problem. In the initial management of this type of fracture, the principles of advanced trauma life support (...

متن کاملBloodless Pelvic Fracture Surgery
Vertebral compression fractures are the most common fractures associated with osteoporosis. Approximately 700,000 osteoporosis-related vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) occur each year in the U.S. Currently, treatment is focused primarily on prevention. When fractures occur in patients with osteoporosis, treatment options are limited to bed rest and pain medications because open surgery w...
متن کاملThe Influence of Pelvic Ramus Fracture on the Stability of Fixed Pelvic Complex Fracture
This study aims to evaluate the biomechanical mechanism of pelvic ring injury for the stability of pelvis using the finite element (FE) method. Complex pelvic fracture (i.e., anterior column with posterior hemitransverse lesion) combined with pelvic ramus fracture was used to evaluate the biomechanics stability of the pelvis. Three FE fracture models (i.e., Dynamic Anterior Plate-Screw System f...
متن کاملOpen vertical sagittal fracture patella with fracture lateral condyle femur: approach to a rare injury
Patellar fracture is a relatively uncommon fracture especially the vertical sagittal type. In cases of high energy trauma injury, it is usually associated with fracture of ipsilateral distal femur or proximal tibia. However, the combination of vertical sagittal fracture patella and ipsilateral fracture lateral condyle is very rare. This necessitates judicious diagnosis and appropriate managemen...
