Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
Introduction: Pelvic fractures occur due to high-energy trauma like motor accidents and fall from height. Pelvis fractures occur in a bimodal pattern, with peak incidences in persons aged 20-40 years and later in persons aged older than 65 years. Material and Method: Study duration of present study is of one and half year for 15 patients. The patients follow inclusion criteria. Results: All patients with APC II injuries were operated for pubic diastasis with double plating. No implant failure or screw breakage was noted during the course of study. We investigate Type of Injury for Functional and radiological outcome. Discussion: we preferred Open reduction and internal fixation with double plating. We operated all the patients with APC II and APC III injuries. Double plating of pubic diastasis with posterior sacroiliac percutaneous screws fixation for vertical instability was our modality of treatment. Conclusion: Satisfactory results can be obtained by immediate closed reduction of the dislocated elbow followed by open reduction and K wire fixation of fractured lateral humeral condyle.
