The reduction of displaced pelvic ring injuries remains a technical challenge, especially when treatment is delayed. A pelvic frame (Orthopaedic Systems Inc, Union City, California) provides a means of external skeletal fixation, rigidly stabilizing the intact hemipelvis to the operating room table. The fractured and displaced fragments can then be manipulated around the securely fixed uninjured hemipelvis, allowing the application of more directions and magnitudes of force for reduction maneuvers than allowed by the traditional means of pelvic reduction. The surgical technique and 1 case each of an acute fracture and pelvic nonunion/malunion are presented.

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a three-dimensional spine deformity governed of the spine. A child's Risser stage of skeletal maturity must be carefully considered for AIS evaluation and treatment. However, there are intra-observer and inter-observer inaccuracies in the Risser stage manual assessment.

Introduction: There are few reports on the treatment of pelvic posterior ring injury with Sacral 1 - Sacral 3(S1-S3)sacroiliac screw fixation. This article reports a case of pelvic posterior ring injury with S1 sacral dysmorphism treated with S1-S3 sacroiliac screw fixation and reviews the relevant research progress.
Presentation Of The Case: A 72-year-old man riding e-bike was struck by a car at a high speed and diagnosed with pelvic fracture.
Unilateral Lumbo-Pelvic Fixation for Denis Type I Unilateral Sacral Fracture: A Finite Element Analysis.

Background: Unilateral sacral fractures with posterior ring instability represent a prevalent type of posterior pelvic ring fracture. While lumbo-pelvic fixation is recognized as a highly stable method, the sufficiency of unilateral lumbo-pelvic fixation (ULF) for such fractures remains under debate.
Purpose: This study aims to assess the biomechanical stability of ULF compared to traditional bilateral lumbo-pelvic fixation (BLF) and triangular osteosynthesis (TO), incorporating clinical observations, and previous biomechanical data.
Fistulae Secondary to Vaginal Pessary Use for Pelvic Organ Prolapse: A Systematic Review.

Introduction And Hypothesis: Urogenital and rectovaginal fistulae are rare complications of pessary use for pelvic organ prolapse (POP). This systematic review investigates the prevalence of these complications in patients using pessary for POP, potential risk factors and approaches to their investigation and management.
Methods: All studies in English reporting urogenital or rectovaginal fistulae secondary to pessaries for POP were eligible for inclusion.
The rectus abdominis tendon insertion to the pubic bone and its clinical implications: A cadaveric study.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Medical School, University of Crete, 71110 Heraklion, Greece.
Purpose: The primary aim of this study is to determine the rectus abdominis tendon (RAT) insertional anatomy and consequently clarify the extension of secure mobilization of the tendon from the pubic bone in the setting of anterior approaches in pelvic and acetabular reconstruction surgery.
Materials And Methods: Eleven fresh frozen cadaveric pelvises were dissected by two fellowship-trained orthopaedic trauma surgeons utilizing the anterior intrapelvic approach (AIP). The RAT at the pubic body was dissected, and its footprint on the pubic bone was defined, marked, and measured.
