چکیده
Computer assisted orthopedic surgery (CAOS) is a recent concept in orthopedics. Its use in orthopedic trauma is becoming more popular. Pelvic and acetabular trauma is one of the applications where CAOS can play an important role to facilitate the surgery. In this review article, we provide an overview of the structure of CAOS with special emphasis on its role in pelvic and acetabular trauma. Th e use of CAOS has many advantages in the fi eld of orthopedic trauma, however, many obstacles are still present that prevent its wide use.

Risk of Spermatic Cord Injury During Anterior Pelvic Ring and Acetabular Surgery: An Anatomical Study
Background: Anterior pelvic ring surgery includes a variety of plating techniques and insertion of retrograde superior pubic ramus screws. Anterior acetabular surgery also includes fixation through an ilioinguinal or Stoppa approach. These exposures risk injury to the spermatic cord and accompanying genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve. The primary aim of this study was to identify the d...
