Transobturator-cable-fixation in pelvic ring injuries with symphyseal disruption - a last resort?

Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg

October 2024

Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Hand, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, University Hospital Würzburg, Oberdürrbacherstraße 6, 97080, Würzburg, Germany.

Purpose: The role of transobturator-cable-fixation (TOCF) in traumatic symphyseal rupture of the pelvic ring remains unclear. This case series aims to evaluate TOCF in complex and revision cases in pelvic surgery.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of a chronological case series was conducted, studying pelvic fractures stabilized using TOCF between January 2006 and December 2022.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of anterior plate fixation alone (SP fixation) versus anterior plate fixation combined with posterior sacroiliac screws (SP+SIS fixation) for treating specific pelvic ring injuries.
  • A systematic literature review identified 40 studies from an initial screening of 1861, including surveys, biomechanical research, and clinical outcomes, with a focus on key outcomes like implant failure and quality of life.
  • The findings indicated that while complications were lower in the SP+SIS group (3.5%) compared to the SP group (30%), the overall evidence was inconclusive and highlighted a significant risk of bias in the studies reviewed.
