Summary

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY:
The authors present a group of patients treated by internal fixation for pelvic fractures in the years 2005–2009 and they evaluate clinical outcomes.

MATERIAL AND METHODS:
In the years 2005 –2009, 46 patients (12 women, 34 men, average age 44 years, range 18 to 82 years) underwent in-ternal fixation of pelvic fracture at the aut-hors´department.

The clinical outcomes were based on the Majeed scoring system.

RESULTS:

In 82 % of the patients, pelvic fractu-res were due to a high-energy trauma caused by traffic accidents in 46 %, by falls from heights in 30 % and by other causes in 6 %. Low-energy sport trauma accounted for 11 % (falls from a bicycle). Type A of pelvic fracture was in 4 patients (8.7 %), type A of isolated acetabular fracture was i 2 patients (4.3 %), type B of pelvic fracture in 18 patients (39.1 %), of isolated acetabular fracture in 3 patients (6.5 %), type C of pelvic fracture in 19 patients (41.3 %).

Associeted injuries were present just in type B and C pelvic fracture. Primary neurological deficit was in 2 patients (4.3 %) with type B fracture and in 6 patient (13 %) with type C. Urogenital injury was presents in 2 patients (4.3 %) with type B fracture a in 3 patients (6.5 %) with type C fracture.

The most used fixation of anterior pelvic segment was plate (in 61.7 %). Sacroiliacal lag screw was the most used fixation of posterior pelvic segment (in 8.3 %).

Intra-operative complications were recorded in 4.3 %, early post-operative ones in 15.2 %, and late ones in 6.5 %. Infectious complication was in 6.5 %.

All patient with type A pelvic fracture had excellent outcomes. Excellent and good clinical outcomes were achieved in 94 % and 66 % of the patient with type B and C pelvic fracture.

DISCUSSION:
The high apperence of primary neurological and urogenital injuries in type B and C fracture was supposing. The higher percent of the neurological complications in type C fractures is expected due to severe injury mecha-nism and laesion of posterior pelvic segment. The severe total patient status, long time staying at anesthesiologic-resustitation department, and soft tissue contusion are reason for higher number of infectious complications.

CONCLUSION:
The pelvic fractures are very problematic part of traumatology. The pelvic ring injuries are mostly like associated injuries or polytrauma. For this reason the complex multidisciplinary cooperation is necessary. The urgent primary pelvic stabilization, right timing of definitive internal fixation and anatomic reposition can reduce the complications and permanent disability.

Key words:
pelvic fracture, associated injuries, surgical treatment, complication, functional outcomes.
