Distant lumbar pelvic stabilization of a longitudinal fracture of the sacrum and injury of the lower lumbar spine after catatrauma. Case report
Presented detailed description of the severe trauma ofthe lumbosacral spineand method of surgical treatment in terms of modern methods of osteosynthesis. Transpedicular stabilization is biomechanically sound. This type of implant allows for multiplanar reposition and stable fixation. Because of these characteristics, and appropriate systemic antibiotic therapy, in the case described could avoid the spread of suppurative inflammation of the bone (osteomyelitis) and elements of the spinal canal (epidurit) with suppuration of surgical wounds.
