Pelvic Fractures
Key Points
Serious pelvic fractures due to high-energy injuries are often associated with genitourinary and vascular injuries. Some (eg, symphyseal or pubic ramus fractures), particularly in patients with osteoporosis, result from minor injuries (eg, falls at home). Do CT for high-energy injuries. Stabilize fractures, control bleeding, and treat associated injuries and symptoms.
