Abstract:
Sacral insufficiency fractures have been related to osteoporosis and steroid therapy, however only one case has been reported following liver transplantation. We describe three patients who developed insufficiency fractures of the sacrum following liver transplantation, these fractures could be overlooked or confused with inflammatory processes involving the sacrum.
