“…Nüchtern et al prospectively reviewed 60 patients with anterior pelvic ring injury on AP radiographs but without obvious fractures posteriorly. 21 Patients underwent CT scan on the day of admission and 1.5 Tesla MRI within 7 days from admission. In addition, patients had clinical examination of the posterior pelvis.…”

“…Die MRT erlaubt mit den stark T2-gewichteten und partiell fettunterdrückten Sequenzen einen frühen Ödemnachweis mit einer Sensitivität von annähernd 100 % und ist damit der Skelettszintigrafie und dem CT in der Detektion von Ermüdungsbrüchen überlegen [28,37]. Wie in der CT visualisiert eine koronar angulierte Schnittebene die meist sagittal verlaufenden Frakturen am besten [12,28,38,39].…”

“…However, the expense and time required to gain beneficial images does make its use in polytrauma restricted, especially with the availability of CT. MRI has been found to be more sensitive in diagnosing undislocated fractures of the posterior pelvic ring, when compared with clinical examination and CT. 11 As mentioned earlier, these fractures are typically associated with anterior ring fractures in the elderly population, which are inherently stable, and therefore the extra information gained via MRI scanning may not change the clinical management. Vertical shear Vertical displacement of the hemipelvis through the sacroiliac joint or a sacral fracture combined with an anterior injury, as seen on an outlet X-ray.…”
