- Abstract
- Regardless of the method of treatment, as many as 5% of all pelvic fractures result in malunion or nonunion of the pelvis. However,
there is not much information in the literature on the management of these late complications. Because they cause disabling
symptoms and socioeconomic problems, some patients with malunion or nonunion of pelvic fractures need to undergo surgery. We
report our experience with satisfactory results of surgery for pelvic malunion and nonunion in four patients. The key to successful
reconstruction is thorough preoperative planning and methodical surgical intervention.
