In unstable pelvic ring injury, if there is damage to both the anterior and posterior, both anterior and posterior fixation will be needed in order to stabilze the pelvic ring. A female patient complained of dyspareunia due to malunion and additional bone bridge at the inferior ramus of the pelvis. She should have undergone both anterior and posterior fixation, but had undergone anterior fixation only. We report on a patient who was treated successfully with resection of additional bone bridge, scar tissue and adhesive band around the vagina.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
