Do Patients With Acute Isolated Pubic Ramus Fractures Have To Be Hospitalized?

A total of 129 patients were included in the study. Haemoglobin levels on admission and at 24 hours were evaluated. Radiographs and computed tomography of the pelvis were also evaluated. The patients were divided into subgroups, according to the accompanying occult posterior pelvic injuries, whether they received anticoagulant-antiaggregant treatment, the number of pubic ramus fractures (single or multiple), the level of energy (low or high) and the zone(s) of the fracture(s). The mean haemoglobin decrease was 1.21 g/dL. Forty-six of the patients were under anticoagulant or antiaggregant treatment. Fifty-one of the fractures occurred due to low energy trauma. Posterior ring injuries were observed in 75 of the patients. Haemoglobin level decreases were statistically significant in injuries with high energy trauma aetiology, in patients using antiaggregant or anticoagulant and in fractures of the lateral half of the superior pubic ramus. It is important to follow all pubic ramus fractures closely because, even in low energy trauma, haemoglobin levels could decrease significantly. We recommend hospitalization to monitor this group of patients.
