Abstract

Isolated fractures of lower sacrum are commonly treated conservatively in most cases because of low energy damage and stable fracture. However, surgical treatment is required in displaced unstable fracture. But the surgical technique is not established and even case reports are not common. We reported a case of displaced transverse fracture of the lower sacrum that was treated with an open reduction and dual plate fixation.

하부 천골의 단독 골절은 일반적으로 저에너지 손상으로 안정된 골절이 많아 대부분의 경우에서 보존적 치료가 이루이지고 있고 그 결과도 좋은 것으로 보고되고 있다. 하지만 전위된 불안정 골절에서는 수술적 치료의 필요성이 요구되나 치료 방법이 정립되어 있지 않으며 증례보고마저 매우 드물다. 이에 저자들은 하부 천골의 전위된 횡골절에 대해 관혈적 정복 및 이중 금속판을 이용한 내고정술을 치험한 증례를 보고하고자 한다.
