[Teriparatide as a therapy approach in sacral insufficiency fractures]

As a result of immense heterogeneity with regard to morphology and stability, the recent literature lacks consensus concerning the treatment of sacral insufficiency fractures. We report the case of a 79-year-old woman with bilateral sacral insufficiency fractures following anterior pelvic ring fractures who was treated with teriparatide. During a two-week hospital stay, the patient was successfully mobilised and the regularly conducted pelvic X‑ray controls showed full consolidation of the fractures.
