Background: The epidemiology and treatment of isolated pelvic fracture in Japan are not well understood. This study evaluated epidemiological trends in isolated pelvic trauma and in-hospital survival rates during a recent 15-year period.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from the Japan Trauma Data Bank for 2004-2018. Patients of any age with isolated pelvic fracture were grouped according to time period, as follows: 2004-2008 (Phase 1), 2009-2013 (Phase 2), and 2014-2018 (Phase 3). The main outcome was 30-day in-hospital survival rate. The data were analyzed using the chi-square, Kruskal-Wallis, and Mantel-Haenszel trend tests. We analyzed change in the main outcome over time in multiple logistic regression analysis fitted with a generalized estimating equation, accounting for within-cluster association.
Results: In total, 5,348 isolated pelvic fractures were identified during the study period. There was no significant between-phase difference in proportions of patients who underwent resuscitative balloon occlusion of the aorta or external fixation. The proportion of patients who underwent transcatheter arterial embolization significantly increased with time (p=0.003), as did the survival rate (Phase 1, 77%; Phase 2, 86%; and Phase 3, 91%; p<0.001). The 30-day in-hospital mortality rate was significantly lower in Phase 3 than in Phase 1 and Phase 2, even after adjustment for hospital clustering and other confounders (p<0.01).
Conclusions: The 30-day in-hospital survival rate after isolated pelvic fracture improved over a 15-year period in Japan.

Phenotypes of Pelvic Organ Prolapse.
Urogynecology (Phila)
January 2025
From the Division of Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, Iowa City, IA.
Importance: The Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) stages do not correlate with symptoms or characterize important prolapse subtypes.
Objectives: We hypothesize that clinically meaningful prolapse "phenotypes" utilizing POP-Q measurements can be defined. The primary aim was to define the phenotypes and their frequency.
A Rare Case of Isolated Diverticular Disease of the Appendix Combined With Uncomplicated Appendicitis.

The differential diagnoses for patients presenting with right iliac fossa pain are broad, with appendicitis almost always on the top of the list. Although rare, diverticulosis of the appendix, complicated by inflammation, should be considered in these patients. We report a case of a middle-aged female with right iliac fossa pain with a high inflammatory marker.

Acetabular fractures are rare fractures of the pelvis which usually result from trauma. Whilst data are reported on sexual and genitourinary function in those with pelvic fractures, less is known about those with isolated acetabulum fractures. This systematic review aimed to determine, first, the frequency of sexual and genitourinary dysfunction following isolated acetabulum fractures and, second, the nature of these complications.

Background: Guidelines recommend the extension of the pelvic radiotherapy volume to the para-aortic region in locally advanced cervical cancer and ≥3 suspicious pelvic lymph nodes (PLN) on imaging. Whether this recommendation is also valid for clinically early stages is uncertain. The objective of this study was to investigate the para-aortic (PAO) lymph node recurrence rate in patients with early-stage cervical cancer, ≥3 metastatic PLN, and negative common iliac nodes after a radical hysterectomy followed by pelvic (chemo)radiotherapy without extension to the PAO region.

Background: Local relapse has not been eradicated even in the era of total mesorectum excision. Although various approaches have been attempted, R0 resection remains the only potentially curative treatment. PATIENT AND METHODS: A 45-year-old woman with a history of laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection was diagnosed with pelvic recurrence 7 months ago.
