AI Article Synopsis
- Recent advancements in endoscopic treatment for pelvic ring injuries highlight the complexity of the bony pelvis and its surrounding soft tissue, making surgical robot systems like DaVinci beneficial.
- A specific case involving a patient with an open-book injury was successfully treated using robotic-assisted techniques for osteosynthesis of the anterior pelvic ring, showcasing the effectiveness of the available instruments.
- The future of trauma surgery may involve more minimally invasive options for treating pelvic ring and acetabulum injuries, emphasizing the need for continued development of techniques and instruments to facilitate these procedures.
Article Abstract
Background: In recent years, endoscopic treatment of pelvic ring injuries has emerged. In addition to the complex 3D anatomy of the bony pelvis, a particular challenge is its embedding in the surrounding soft tissue structures. It is known from other surgical specialties that the preparation can be facilitated by using surgical robot systems.
Materials And Methods: In a patient with an open-book injury of the pelvic ring, a symphysis plate was performed using the DaVinci system.
Results: We describe the robotic-assisted osteosynthesis on the anterior pelvic ring with available instruments.
Conclusion: The further development of minimally invasive surgical techniques is always linked to the development of new instruments. For trauma surgery, this means in particular the reduction of dislocated fractures. If appropriate techniques and instruments are developed here, minimally invasive treatment of injuries to the pelvic ring or acetabulum may represent an alternative to open procedures in the future.

Abdominal wall repair in adults with bladder exstrophy is challenging. We present a case of a 46-year-old woman with bladder exstrophy presenting with a large midline incisional hernia associated with a 13-cm hypoplasia of both pubic rami that precluded fixation of any abdominal mesh. A two-stage approach was adopted.

Case: A 35-year-old man with morbid obesity sustained an ultra-low velocity (ULV) rotational knee dislocation secondary to a fall from standing. The patient was successfully treated using a subcutaneous knee-spanning internal fixator, the "INFIX" technique, which has previously been described for pelvic ring injuries.
Conclusion: This novel technique maintained the stable reduction of an ULV knee dislocation in a patient with morbid obesity until adequate healing was achieved.

Background: It is known that fractures of the pelvic ring and acetabulum in work-related accidents are associated with long periods of incapacity to work, a high rate of reduction in earning capacity (MdE) and high costs for pension/severance pay.
Objective: Investigation of changes in pension claims and costs from 2013 to 2019 after isolated fractures of the pelvic ring and acetabulum in work-related accidents in Germany.
Material And Methods: For all patients from the German Social Accident Insurance (DGUV) registry with isolated fractures of the pelvic ring or acetabulum in work-related accidents, linear trend analyses were carried out among others for the proportion of MdE ≥20%, the proportion of cases receiving pension/severance pay and total costs for pension/severance pay from 2013 to 2019.
