Intrapelvic Anterior Plate Fixation for Crescent Fracture-Dislocation of Sacroiliac Joint: Kwang Jun Oh, Jin Ho Choi; J Korean Fract Soc 2013;26(3):184-190. Published online July 31, 2013; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2013.26.3.184

Abstract PDF: PURPOSE
To evaluate the radiological and clinical outcomes of intrapelvic anterior plate fixations for Day Classification Type II crescent fracture-dislocations of sacroiliac joints.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Ten patients who had undertaken the surgical treatment for the sacroiliac joint from 2006 to 2012 were enrolled in this study. All cases fell into Type II by Day Classification for sacroiliac joint injuries. For surgical treatments, the plate fixation through the intra-pelvic anterior approach was first performed for all cases and anterior ring fixation was performed in 4 cases with more severely displaced anterior pelvic ring injuries. Then, radiological and clinical evaluation was implemented.
RESULTS
The bone union was observed from all patients whom performed the surgical fixation. In the radiological results, 9 cases with the anatomic and nearly-anatomic reductions were observed. Out of the 10 cases which performed the rotational displacement analysis, there were 3 excellent cases, 6 good cases and 1 fair case. The 10 cases that performed the deformity index and vertical displacement analysis, less variations were observed in the anterior ring fixations after intra-pelvic anterior plate fixation group. According to the clinical results, 4 excellent cases, 3 good cases, and 3 moderate cases were observed.
CONCLUSION
In the Type II crescent fracture-dislocation of sacroiliac joint, the intrapelvic anterior plate fixation achieved satisfactory anatomical reductions, radiological stabilities and clinical results.

Surgical Treatment of Unstable Pelvic Bone Fracture Involving Sacroiliac Joint: Myung Ho Kim, Hee Gon Park, Moon jib Yoo, Jin Woo An; J Korean Soc Fract 2003;16(4):433-440. Published online October 31, 2003; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2003.16.4.433

Abstract PDF: PURPOSE
To evaluate the results of surgical method using plate and screws in the treatment of unstable pelvic bone fracture involving Sacroiliac Joint.
MATERIALS AND METHOD
Authors reviewed 21 patients treated by surgical method from 1998 to 2002. Mean follow-up period was 15 months (12~24 month). Male were 16 and female were 5. We used plate and screws in 18 cases, just screws in 3 cases. We classified the type of fracture by Tile's classification and evaluated the results with Moon's criteria that based on reduction state in simple x-ray and patient's subjective satisfaction.
RESULTS
We got the bony union in all cases. By Moon's criteria, 10 cases were good, 7 cases were fair and 4 cases were poor. In 17 cases (80.9%), we got the results over fair. Mean weight bearing exercise periods were 6.4 weeks. There were 2 infection and 2 sacroiliac arthritis after operation.
CONCLUSION
As a method of surgical treatment on unstable pelvic bone fracture involving sacroiliac joint, we recommend open reduction and internal fixation with plate and screws and it may has particular advantages in early ambulation and satisfactory functional outcome.

Treatment of pelvic bone fracture involving the sacrum and sacroiliac joint: Hui Taek Kim, Kyo Min Son, Sang Jin Cheon, Chong Il Yoo; J Korean Soc Fract 2001;14(3):313-322. Published online July 31, 2001; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2001.14.3.313

PURPOSE
To evaluate the usefulness of early posterior internal fixation(I/F) by cannulated cancellous screw(CCS) in unstable pelvic bone fractures involving the sacrum and sacroiliac joint.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Sixteen cases were evaluated retrospectively. Classification according to the injury mechanism, using Young's criteria, was as follows: 7 anteroposterior compression, 4 lateral compression, 4 vertical shear and 1 combined mechanism. With respect to treatment, 9 cases were treated by combined anterior external fixation(E/F) and posterior I/F with CCS(7 cases) and transiliac rod(2 cases). Five cases were treated by anterior E/F only, and 2 cases were treated without surgery. We analyzed clinical results using Matta's criteria, and radiologic abnormalities.
RESULTS
The management by posterior I/F with CCS and transiliac rod including anterior E/F has shown superior clinical results(7 satisfactory, 2 unsatisfactory) over the management by only anterior E/F(1 satisfactory, 4 unsatisfactory) or conservative methods(2 unsatisfactory). The rate of malunion and nonunion was also low in the former method in the radiographic analysis.
CONCLUSION
Posterior I/F using CCS is an excellent surgical procedure in the treatment of unstable pelvic bone fracture due to its lessened invasiveness, early applicability, simple surgical technique and its direct effects on the prevention of several complications.
