Is Anterior Plating Superior to the Bilateral Use of Retrograde Transpubic Screws for Treatment of Straddle Pelvic Ring Fractures? A Biomechanical Investigation

Background: Fractures of the four anterior pubic rami are described as “straddle fractures”. The aim of this study was to compare biomechanical anterior plating (group 1) versus the bilateral use of retrograde transpubic screws (group 2). Methods: A straddle fracture was simulated in 16 artificial p...
