In 1991-1992, a pelvic stress fracture incidence of 11.2% was recorded in a cohort of 143 female Australian Army recruits. An incidence of 0.1% was recorded in a cohort of male recruits trained in the 1992-1993 year using a nearly identical program. A number of preventive strategies were instituted in an attempt to reduce the high incidence of injury in female recruits. Route march speed was re...

UNLABELLED The purpose of this study was to correlate measures of sagittal spinopelvic alignment [lumbar lordosis (LL), sacral slope (SS), pelvic tilt (PT) and pelvic incidence (PI)] and measures of acetabular coverage [lateral center edge angle (LCEA) and Tonnis angle] in asymptomatic adolescents on standing biplanar radiographs. We hypothesized that subjects with increased pelvic incidence an...

The kinematic relationship between the hip and the axial skeleton is dynamic and can be variable based on individual anatomy. It has been shown [1] that pelvic incidence (sacral slope + pelvic tilt) can be used as a proxy to determine the ability of the pelvis to accommodate changes in sagittal balance. Individuals have varied pelvic incidence and thus may adapt differently degenerative and/or ...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the distinctions in survival and toxicity between patients with cervical cancer with common iliac node or para-aortic node involvement, who were treated with extended-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy (EF-IMRT) and patients with or without lower involved pelvic nodes, who were treated with pelvic IMRT. A total of 55 patients treated with EF-IMRT...

Study Design Retrospective analysis. Purpose Our hypothesis is that the surgical correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) maintains normal sagittal alignment as compared to age-matched normative adolescent population. Overview of Literature Sagittal spino-pelvic alignment in AIS has been reported, however, whether corrective spinal fusion surgery re-establishes normal alignment r...

Background We intended to determine the incidence of endometriosis at diagnostic laparoscopy for infertility problem and pelvic pain and/or cyst. In addition we aimed to evaluate symptoms, different stages and locations of endometriosis in fertile or infertile endometriosis patients. MaterialsAndMethods This observational cross-sectional study was performed in the Department of Obstetrics and G...

Introduction (1.88 %), Dachshund (1.25%), Dalmatian (1.04 %) and others (2 %). The highest incidence of the pelvic limb Fracture of the long bone is a commonly fracture in non-descript dogs observed in the present encountered orthopaedic problem in canine practice. study might be due to their free roaming habit which Understanding the different types of fracture and their make them more vulnera...

AIMS To determine whether the bladder base elevation as revealed by cystogram under fluoroscopy is associated with pelvic floor hypertonicity or bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) in women. METHODS Sixty-two women who were referred to our videourodynamic laboratory for assessment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) were included in this retrospective analysis. Thirty-one of these women with ...

Background: The aim of this study was to find out different causes of female infertility with diagnostic approach using laparoscopy and hysteroscopy. Methods: This retrospective study was done in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of MGMCRI, Puducherry. 135 infertile women aged 19-40 years were enrolled retrospectively for combined laparoscopy and hysteroscopy. These infertile women we...

Pelvic angiographic embolization is an effective procedure to provide haemostasis in patients with pelvic fractures. However, management with repeated follow-up radiographs may result in infertility. The study aimed to evaluate the risk of infertility following pelvic fracture treated with pelvic angiographic embolization in female patients. We used data from the National Health Insurance Resea...
