VAN HEUKELUM, M y BLAKE, C. Major disruption of the pelvic ring during normal vaginal delivery: A case report. SA orthop. j. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.1, pp.24-27. ISSN 2309-8309. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2309-8309/2017/v16n1a2.
Open-book pelvic fractures are generally associated with high energy trauma. Occasionally these fractures are seen as a complication of normal vaginal delivery. We report the case of a 25-year-old female with a 77 mm symphysis pubis diastasis with associated disruption of the sacroiliac joints following delivery, which was successfully treated with open reduction and internal fixation.
