Faisham, Wan Ismail Wan; Nawaz, Amir Hussain; Joehaimey, Johari; Sallehuddin, Ahmad Yaacob & Wan, Zulmi
Abstract
Sacroilliac joint diasthesis from high energy trauma is always complicated with chronic pain and
long term morbidity. Open anterior stabilisation with plate allow direct reduction and stabilisation
with biomechanically advantages. Here we report on four cases of pelvic injury with sacroiliac joint
disruption treated with anterior plate stabilisation through a surgical approach similar to that used
for anterior ring fractures.
