Abstract
A method and apparatus for stabilization of pelvic fractures, and particularly double vertical fractures, that provides for accurate restoration of the anterior and posterior integrity of the pelvic ring. The method involves rigid fixation of a posterior fracture with a plate and rod apparatus that applies rigid compression through the wings of the ilium and across the sacrum at the correct angle and non-rigid fixation across the anterior pubic symphysis with a screw and cable apparatus that applies flexible compression.
