Surgical management of U/H type sacral fractures: outcomes following iliosacral and lumbopelvic fixation

Abstract

Patients with U/H type sacral fractures can be treated with ISF or LPF without an expected increase in hospital length of stay (LOS) or need for ICU. Treatment with LPF may increase operative time however; the patient is more likely to be discharged to home instead of a rehab facility.
