Clinical and radiological outcomes of lumbopelvic fixation in unstable Isler type II and III sacral fractures
Background
Sacral fractures constitute a significant portion of pelvic fractures, ranging from 10 % to 45 %. Among sacral fractures, 17 %–30 % are categorized as unstable. The objective of the study was to investigate the clinical and radiological outcomes associated with lumbopelvic fixation (LPF) in Isler II and Isler III unstable sacral fractures.
Methods
A Prospective cohort study was conducted at tertiary care Hospital Lahore from January 2019 to December 2021. Patients were followed up till July 2023. Patients diagnosed with unstable Isler II and Isler III sacral fractures who underwent LPF utilizing a posterior triangular osteosynthesis (PTO) were analyzed. Comprehensive clinical and radiological assessments were conducted preoperatively and postoperatively (following a 2-year follow-up period). Evaluation of clinical and radiological outcomes was made.
Results
In a total of 13 patients, the majority were male (8 patients, 61.5 %), with an average age of 27.46 ± 3.73 years at the time of surgery. Neurologic function was impaired in 9 patients (69.2 %). Seven patients (53.8 %) had Isler II fractures, while the remaining 6 patients (46.2 %) had Isler III fractures. The mean preoperative Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score improved significantly from 6.62 ± 1.12 to 1.85 ± 0.80 postoperatively (p < 0.0001). The mean postoperative Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score improved from 82.15 ± 6.61 to 17.61 ± 1.45 (p < 0.0001). Radiologically, complete fracture healing was observed in all patients, with none requiring revision surgery. Residual deformity was present in 4 patients (30.8 %), but it was deemed clinically insignificant. Two patients (15.4 %) experienced superficial surgical site infections (SSI), which were effectively treated with antibiotics.
Conclusion
Lumbopelvic fixation for Isler II and III unstable sacral fractures significantly improved pain and disability scores, with complete fracture healing observed in all patients. Residual deformities were clinically insignificant, and the procedure demonstrated a favorable safety profile.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics and Trauma (JCOT) aims to provide its readers with the latest clinical and basic research, and informed opinions that shape today''s orthopedic practice, thereby providing an opportunity to practice evidence-based medicine. With contributions from leading clinicians and researchers around the world, we aim to be the premier journal providing an international perspective advancing knowledge of the musculoskeletal system. JCOT publishes content of value to both general orthopedic practitioners and specialists on all aspects of musculoskeletal research, diagnoses, and treatment. We accept following types of articles: • Original articles focusing on current clinical issues. • Review articles with learning value for professionals as well as students. • Research articles providing the latest in basic biological or engineering research on musculoskeletal diseases. • Regular columns by experts discussing issues affecting the field of orthopedics. • "Symposia" devoted to a single topic offering the general reader an overview of a field, but providing the specialist current in-depth information. • Video of any orthopedic surgery which is innovative and adds to present concepts. • Articles emphasizing or demonstrating a new clinical sign in the art of patient examination is also considered for publication. Contributions from anywhere in the world are welcome and considered on their merits.
