Objective: To introduce the experience of intelligent monitoring system assisted pelvic fracture closed reduction to treat complex pelvic fracture in a minimally invasive method.
Methods: A 30-year-old male patient with complex pelvic fracture caused by a falling injury was treated in December 2019. The pelvic fracture was diagnosed by X-ray film and CT three-dimensional reconstruction. The AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) classification was 61-C3.3 type (H-shaped sacrum fracture with pubic symphysis separation). At 48 hours after injury, the vital signs were stable, and the operation was performed. The pelvic fracture was reduced with the help of pelvic reduction frame and skeletal traction, the intelligent monitoring system, and fixed with the channel screws.
Results: The intraoperative blood loss was 50 mL, the operation time was 180 minutes, and the fluoroscopy time was 45 seconds. The incision healed well after operation. The X-ray film of pelvis was taken on the next day after operation, and the fracture reduction was evaluated as anatomical reduction according to Matta standard; CT three-dimensional reconstruction showed that the fixation screws were all located in the cortex of bone, without penetrating the cortex of bone.
Conclusion: The intelligent monitoring system assisted pelvic fracture closed reduction is reliable in the minimally invasive treatment of complex pelvic fractures, which can achieve good results and reduce intraoperative fluoroscopy.

Background: Older adults make up an increasing portion of orthopedic trauma care. Proxy reports are particularly valuable when patients face difficulties formulating answers due to pre-existing or temporary cognitive impairment, and provide critical insights into patient well-being.
Questions/purposes: This study examines the agreement between patient- and proxy-reported outcome measures across various health domains of older adult orthopedic trauma patients, including those with mild cognitive impairment.

Purpose: The fixation method commonly employed worldwide for treating unstable fractures of the posterior pelvic ring is the percutaneous iliosacral screw technique. However, prolonged operation time and frequent fluoroscopies result in surgical risks. This study aimed to investigate whether a new triangulation method could reduce operative and fluoroscopy times and increase the accuracy of screw placement.

Background: Unstable posterior pelvic-ring fractures are rare and difficult to manage. There are many injury patterns, they are associated with high morbidity and mortality, and optimal surgical management remains contentions. This study aims to compare outcomes and complications for different surgical management of these injuries.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to determine what demographic and anatomical variables affect successful placement of a superior medullary ramus screw, and how they affect the maximal diameter of that screw.
Methods: Design: Prognostic Level IV SETTING: Level I Trauma Center Patients/Participants: Two hundred consecutive patients underwent computed tomography (CT) of the pelvis. We included those patients aged 18 and older without osseous injury or abnormalities precluding measurement.

Background: Controversy exists regarding the reconstruction of bone defects in Enneking III. This study aimed to use the finite element analysis (FEA) method to clarify (1) the utility of reconstructing the pelvis Enneking III region and (2) the optimal approach for this reconstruction.
Methods: FEA models were generated for three types of Enneking III defects in the pelvis, replacing all the defect areas in region III with a sizable solid box for topology optimization (TO).
