Abstract:
Pelvic ring fractures are associated with high-energy trauma and high mortality owing to critical blood loss and concomitant injuries. If there is a concurrent lumbar fracture, the postoperative range of motion will be limited owing to the increased fusion range. Here, we report a case in which skip fusion with sacral-alar-iliac screw fixation was effective as a minimally invasive procedure for treating pelvic ring and lumbar fractures.
