In this picture of the pelvis, the sacrum is the butterfly-shaped bone in the middle Lateral view of the sacrum and the coccyx. A sacral fracture is a break in the sacrum bone. The sacrum is the large triangular bone that forms the last part of the vertebral column from the fusion of the five sacral vertebrae. Sacral fractures are relatively ...
Complete injury. No motor or sensory function is preserved in the sacral segments S4 or S5. 1 Muscle flickers B Sensory incomplete. Sensory but not motor function is preserved below the level of injury, including the sacral segments. 2 Full range of motion, gravity eliminated C Motor incomplete. Motor function is preserved below the level of ...
A pelvic fracture is a break of the bony structure of the pelvis. [1] This includes any break of the sacrum, hip bones (ischium, pubis, ilium), or tailbone. [1] Symptoms include pain, particularly with movement. [1] Complications may include internal bleeding, injury to the bladder, or vaginal trauma. [2] [3]
Denis III transverse sacral fracture B - rotationally unstable/vertically stable: Open-book external rotation injury Young-Burgess lateral compression type internal rotation injury Bilateral C - rotationally and vertically unstable: Unilateral with intact contralateral side Unilateral with incomplete contralateral side Bilateral
The sacroiliac joint is a true diarthrodial joint that joins the sacrum to the pelvis. [1] [8] [16] [17] The sacrum connects on the right and left sides to the ilia (pelvic bones) to form the sacroiliac joints. The pelvic girdle is made up of two innominate bones (the iliac bones) and the sacrum.
A coccyx fracture is a fracture of the coccyx, commonly called a broken tailbone or ‘puzzle fracture.’ The coccyx is located at the base of the spine , under the sacrum . It is the last section of the ape vertebral column .
Lumbarization of sacral vertebra 1, seen as 6 vertebrae that do not connect to ribs. Lumbarization is an anomaly in the spine. It is defined by the nonfusion of the first and second segments of the sacrum. The lumbar spine subsequently appears to have six vertebrae or segments, not five. This sixth lumbar vertebra is known as a transitional ...
Complete injury of cord/conus medullaris (complete) - 2 points Cauda equina syndrome - 3 points A TLICS score of less than 4 indicates non-operative treatment, a score of 4 indicates that the injury may be treated operatively or non-operatively, while a score of more than 4 means that the injury is usually considered for operative management.
