Summary

Introduction:
Restoring stability of the injured pelvic ring is a precondition for ensuring a good functional outcome. There are a number of stabilizing techniques including some percutaneous and minimally invasive techniques. The aim of this case-report was to present an alternative option of minimally invasive fixation of the anterior segment of the pelvis using ^©MATRIX Spine System for spondylosurgical stabilization.

Materials and Methods:
This case report describes an alternative procedure of minimally invasive stabilization of the anterior pelvic segment with polyaxial screws fixed in the supra-acetabular region with a firm but fle-xible connecting rod in an obese patient with polytrauma, after embolization of the internal illiac artery with a massive hematoma in the lower abdomen.

Results:
Uncomplicated healing process. After 12 months thepatient is without difficulties and there is no hardware-related irritation. He does not request hardware removal.

Conclusion:
Minimally invasive pelvic stabilization of the anterior segment using the ^©MATRIX Spine System expands the repertoire of fixation options for pelvic ring injuries.

Key word:
MISS, pelvic fracture, symphysiolysis, minimally invasive, internal fixation.
