Abstract

Sacral fractures due to direct trauma are very rare. Sacral fractures usually occurs as a result of high energy traumas and accompanied with pelvic fractures 40-50 %. With convantional radiology sacrum fractures can be overlook because of intestinal gas, shadow of bladder and the shape of sacrum itself. It should not be forgotten that 35 % of sacral fractures can overlook with x rays. Under clinical suspicion computerized tomography is needed for diagnosis. We report here diagnosis with computerized tomography of sacrum fracture of 20 years old man suffers from S4 fracure with rare injury mechanism and conservative treatment

Özet

Direk travma sonrası görülen sakral kırıklar nadirdir. Sakral kırıklar genellikle % 40-50 oranında eşlik eden pelvik kırıklarla seyrederler ve yüksek enerjili travmalar sonrasında görülürler. Sakrum kırığının konvansiyonel radyolojik tetkiklerle değerlendirilmesi önündeki bağırsak gazı, mesane ve sakrumun açılanması nedeniyle zordur. Düz grafilerle sakrum kırıklarının % 35ʼi gözden kaçırılabilir olduğu unutulmamalıdır. Şüpheli klinik durumlarda konvansiyonel radyografilerle tanı konulamazsa 1-2 mm kesitlerle bilgisayarlı tomografi kullanılabilir. Bu çalışmada intergluteal sulkusa direk travma sonrası gelişen nadir sakrum kırığının bilgisayarlı tomografi ile tanısı ve konservatif tedavisi sunulmaktadır.
