Iliac intramedullary stabilization for Type IIIA fragility fractures of the pelvis

Abstract There have been few reports on fixation of Rommens classification Type IIIA fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFPs). Here, we present our less invasive surgical technique, called iliac intramedullary stabilization (ILIS), for the internal fixation of Type IIIA FFPs. The technique involves...

Here, we present our less invasive surgical technique, called iliac intramedullary stabilization (ILIS), for the internal fixation of Type IIIA FFPs.

We evaluated operative and post-operative outcomes. We enrolled 10 patients (9 women and 1 man; mean age, 85.2 years) who were followed up for over 6 months. All patients suffered FFPs after falling from a standing position. The mean operative time was 145.1 (range, 94–217) minutes, and the mean blood loss was 258.5 (range, 100–684) ml. All patients were allowed full weight bearing from post-operative day 1. All patients achieved bone union and regained their pre-injury walking ability at 6 months after surgery without evident secondary displacement.
