Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Trauma management
  • Pelvic reconstruction

Background:

  • Pelvic ring disruptions require effective reduction and stabilization.
  • External fixation is a recognized method for managing pelvic injuries.
  • Specific frame configurations may enhance treatment for complex deformities.

Observation:

  • A two-pin oblique anterior pelvic deformity correction frame was utilized.
  • This frame is designed for lateral compression injuries with flexion/internal rotation deformities.
  • The frame was used alone or with internal fixation.

Findings:

  • The oblique distraction external fixation frame is a simple and safe strategy.
  • It effectively reduces and stabilizes unstable multiplanar hemipelvic deformities.
