Abstract

Eighty-four cases of pelvic fractures in children were reviewed. Most of them were the result of motor vehicle accidents. Thirty-nine per cent were classified as unstable, the most frequent type being diametric fractures. The others, most of which were pubic fractures, were classified as stable. Twenty-eight patients sustained fractures elsewhere and sixteen had associated visceral injuries.
