FERNANDEZ VALLE, Oscar et al. Behavior of the traumatic lesions of the pelvic ring. Rev.Med.Electrón. [online]. 2021, vol.43, n.1, pp.2873-2886.  Epub 28-Feb-2021. ISSN 1684-1824.

Introduction:

pelvic ring traumatic lesions are a challenge for orthopedic surgeons due to their high morbi-mortality and the consequences derived from them.

Objective:

to describe the behavior of clinical and demographic variables in patients cared due to pelvic ring traumatic lesions in the University Hospital “Comandante Faustino Perez Hernandez” of Matanzas.

Method:

a descriptive, prospective, longitudinal research was carried out in patients admitted to the Orthopedics and Traumatology Service of the before-named hospital for presenting pelvic ring traumatic lesions in the period from January 2009 until January 2019. Clinical and demographic variables were chosen.

Results:

the study included 48 patients. Male sex predominated, 29 patients, 60.4 %; the most frequent age ranged between 31 and 50 years. Type B fractures predominated with 24 patients and 50 %; surgical treatment also predominated with 27 patients and 56.2 %; among the immediate complications, hypovolemic shock predominated in 14 patients for 29.1 %; among the late ones, surface sepsis predominated with 6 patients, 12.5 %.

Conclusions:

pelvic ring traumatic lesions should be always treated like serious lesions; therefore they should be evaluated in a multidiscipline way, adhered to the intervention protocols, and by highly experienced professionals.
