Fig. 1

(A) A 52-year-old male who had open femoral fracture and unstable pelvic ring injury was managed with temporary external fixation.

(B) After patient's condition was optimized, conversion to internal fixation using intramedullary nail was performed for femoral fracture.

Fig. 2

(A) A 43-year-old female was sustaind from hemodynamically unstable pelvic ring injury. Angiography and embolization was performed as primary treatment for hemorrhage control (arrow).

(B) Pelvic external fixation was carried out for provisional fixation of unstable pelvic ring injury. After patient's condition was optimized, convertsion to internal fixation was performed.
