Summary: The retrospective study determined the efficacy and safety of using two tension band ilioiliac locking compression plates for fixation of FFP type IV fractures. The study included 41 patients treated from 2017-2020, and the results showed significant improvement in functional outcomes and performance after one year of treatment. The fixation method was proven to be efficient and safe, with minimal complications.

Summary: Iliosacral joint immobilization causes task-dependent deviations in walking, such as increased plantarflexor force and altered joint movements. Patients experience significant mobility limitation after iliosacral screw fixation.

Summary: Phalangeal fractures are the second most common upper extremity fracture. Proper treatment is crucial to prevent finger stiffness, loss of range of motion, and functional deficits. Fixation methods range from percutaneous pinning to open reduction and internal fixation.

Summary: This study compared the clinical effects and safety of traditional PVP and PVP aided by 3D-printed body-surface guide plates for treating OVCFs. The results showed that the 3D group had shorter operation times, improved pain and disability scores, and lower incidence of complications compared to the traditional group.

Summary: This study compared the accuracy and radiation exposure between 2D and 3D fluoroscopy-guided placement of sacroiliac screws. The results showed no significant differences in screw positioning accuracy and radiation dose between the two methods. Thus, using 3D fluoroscopy does not provide advantages over 2D fluoroscopy in placing iliosacral screws.

Summary: The study assesses the safety and accuracy of lateral mass screw placement using a new lateral mass drill guide instrument (LM Guide) compared to standard freehand technique. The LM Guide significantly reduces the rate of screw malpositioning and improves screw trajectory accuracy, regardless of surgeon experience level.

Summary: The study concluded that the theoretical compatibility rate of S2AI screws and S2 sacroiliac screws in the S2 segment was 94%, and the biomechanical stability of ITO is slightly lower than TTS but better than TO, making it a potential new method for treating posterior pelvic ring injuries.

Summary: This study retrospectively evaluated the records of 64 patients with pelvic fractures and compared the biplanar positioning technique group, the Ti-robot navigation group, and the traditional fluoroscopy-guided technique group in terms of operative time, radiation exposure, and screw placement accuracy. The results showed that the biplanar group had shorter operative time, lower radiation exposure, and more accurate screw placement compared to the traditional group.

Summary: This study compared the clinical outcomes and complications of two minimally invasive surgical techniques for treating C-type pelvic bone fractures. The results showed that both percutaneous transiliac plate fixation and iliosacral screw fixation had good treatment results, but there were differences in postoperative complications.

Summary: The use of ASF in OLIF surgery does not reduce the stress on the endplate and contact surface between the vertebrae and screw, which may increase the risk of cage subsidence and screw loosening.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of sacral fracture fixation compared with non-surgical management among older people with a lateral compression pelvic fragility fracture. The feasibility trial faced challenges in recruiting sufficient participants, which need to be addressed before a definitive trial can be conducted.

Summary: The study investigated the clinical effects of using a modified percutaneous iliosacral screw and INFIX technique for treating unstable pelvic fractures, showing successful treatment outcomes in all 22 cases without loss of reduction or delayed union during follow-up. The patients also exhibited good VAS and Majeed scores at the two-year postoperative mark, highlighting the safety and efficacy of this modified technique.

Summary: The covert-inferior pelvic approach combined with a subpubic plate effectively fixed Nakatani type-I, II, and III fractures. It offers rapid recovery post-surgery, safety, simplicity, short learning curve, no abdominal soft tissue damage, no effect on pubic symphysis micromotion, and esthetic benefits. This method may serve as an alternative option for anterior pelvic ring fractures and complement other approaches.

Summary: Bilateral sacral fractures can be effectively treated with either LPF or ISF, with LPF allowing for immediate weight bearing and ISF reducing operative time and postoperative complications. Demographics should be considered when deciding on surgical treatment for these injuries.

Summary: Patients with sandwich AAD have distinct clinical manifestations and are at greater risk for myelopathy. They also have higher incidences of lower cranial nerve palsy, Chiari malformation, and syringomyelia. Treatment for these patients often requires the use of various internal fixation techniques and transoral release procedures.
