[Control of diffuse bleeding in unstable pelvic fractures with compression plate packing: presentation of the surgical technique]

[Complex pelvic trauma : A case report with special consideration of the accompanying urogenital injury]

The following case report shows a young male patient with a complex pelvic trauma due to a traffic accident. In addition to the pelvic ring fracture, he also suffered a severe accompanying injury to the efferent urinary tract in combination with extensive damage of the lumbosacral plexus. Multiple extensive operations were necessary to address the C3 fracture of the pelvic ring and the bladder injury. Due to an infection a wound healing disorder subsequently occurred, which necessitated a myocutaneous flap plasty. This case highlights the complexity of this injury and confirms the necessity for an interdisciplinary individualized treatment.
