Genitourinary Injuries in Pelvic Fracture Morbidity and Mortality Using the National Trauma Data Bank

Abstract

Patients sustaining a pelvic fracture with GUI have an increase in morbidity. Although GUI was not an independent predictor of mortality, patients who sustained a pelvic fracture with GUI had a greater number of concomitant injuries resulting in an increase in overall mortality compared with those without an associated GUI.
