dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of unstable pelvic fractures:treated with a new external fixation device. Between May 1992:and May 1998, 43 patients with unstable pelvic fractures were treated with a new anterior pelvic external fixator. Two died, and therefore 41 patients' results were evaluated. There were 29 men and 12 women, and their average age was 34 years (range 12-70 years). Traffic accidents accounted for 34 injuries. Three patients fell from a height, 3 were injured in industrial accidents, and 1 was hit by a train. According to the Tile classification, there Were 24 type B pelvic injuries and 17 type C. Associated injuries Were observed in 21 patients. A considerable reduction of the pelvic pain was noted after application of the fixator in all patients. Excessive blood transfusion was not required in any patient, The average follow-up was 24 months (range 12-50 months). Clinical results at final evaluation were good according to the criteria of Matta and Saucedo in 34 patients and poor in 7, In conclusion,:the new pelvic external fixator is effective, safe, and easy to apply in the treatment of unstable pelvic fractures. The fixator can be used alone in patients with type B pelvic injuries such as open book and lateral compression. However, it does not provide sufficient stability for severely displaced type C injuries when applied alone. Nevertheless, it may be helpful for fixing type C injuries like a posterior iliac fracture without dislocation of the sacroiliac joint.en_US
