Background: This study aimed to objectively assess the laparotomy pads to potential hemorrhage sites proximity in pelvic fracture patients who underwent post-pre peritoneal packing (PPP) CT scans with packs in situ.
Methods: The CT scans of 19 patients were assessed to measure the distance between laparotomy pads and predetermined pelvic anatomical landmarks.
Results: A total of 38 measurements showed that the median pack-to-point distance for the sacroiliac joint was 2.

: Anterior sacroiliac fracture dislocation (ASFD), also known as locked pelvis, is a rarely reported diagnosis. The types of ASFDs are often misdiagnosed as lateral compression fractures due to the presence of crescent fractures. In this study, we distinguished ASFD from lateral compression fractures (LC 2) and studied their characteristics.

Aim: The literature indicates that patients with prior pelvic surgery, particularly radical prostatectomy, pose challenges in minimally invasive inguinal hernia repair (IHR). However, there is no conclusive evidence regarding the impact of pelvic surgery on postoperative complications. To address this gap, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the influence of previous prostatectomy in men undergoing MIS IHR.
