Open Pelvic Fractures

Open Pelvic Fractures is a distinct clinical entity within pelvic trauma characterized by a fracture of the pelvic ring with an overlying open wound that establishes a direct communication between the fracture site and the external environment, thereby differentiating it from closed pelvic fractures by the breach of the skin or mucous membranes in proximity to the injury.
