Minimally Invasive Transiliac Plate Osteosynthesis for Type C Injuries of the Pelvic Ring: A Clinical and Radiological Follow-Up

Abstract

Posterior plate osteosynthesis is a sufficiently stable method for the treatment of unstable pelvic ring injuries with a low risk of iatrogenic nervous tissue and vascular lesions. The disadvantages are limited reduction possibilities, the necessity of bilateral bridging of the sacroiliac joint in a unilateral injury, as well as a higher rate of symptomatic hardware.
