Abstract:
Public symphysis diastasis is an uncommon condition which is caused mostly by severe trauma like road traffic accidents and fall from heights. We present cases of pubic symphysis diastasis following spontaneous vaginal delivery. This is to reiterate the fact that this type of public symphysis diastasis is different from other types of traumatic pubic symphysis diastasis and can be managed successfully with absolute bed rest.
