METHODS--This was a retrospective study of 14 patients with sacral fractures. RESULTS--Six patients had additional pelvic fractures. Four bone scintigraphic patterns were found. The resolution of symptoms was longer in patients with associated pelvic fractures (30 weeks v three weeks). No relation was found between the bone scintigraphic pattern and the time of evolution. CONCLUSION--Associated pelvic fractures delay the resolution of symptoms in patients with sacral fractures, regardless of scintigraphic pattern.3 p.application/pdfeng(c) BMJ Publishing Group Ltd, 1993FracturesPelvisRegió lumbosacraFracturesPelvisLumbosacral regioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article77894info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess8346984
