Abstract

U-Type sacral fracture is uncommon fracture that can present transforaminal or intradural extension. Associated neurologic injury is common. It must be remembered and evaluated with lateral sacral radiography or computed tomography in patients who falled or jumped from high levels. Fixation with bilateral percutaneous iliosacral screw is a good technique that can be used in such fractures. We present a case that had a U- type sacral fracture and discussed the treatment of this uncommon injury.

Özet

U-tipi sakral kırık hem transforaminal, hem intradural uzanım gösteren nadir görülen bir kırıktır. Beraberinde yüksek oranda nörolojik yaralanma görülür. Özellikle yüksekten atlayan hastalarda akılda tutulmalı, lateral sakral grafi veya bilgisayarlı pelvis tomografisi ile değerlendirilmelidir. Bilateral perkutanöz iliosakral vida ile tespit bu tip kırıklarda uygulanabilen iyi bir tekniktir. Bu çalışmada hem nadir görülen U tipi sakrum kırıklı bir olgu sunuldu, hem de tedavisi tartışıldı.
