Abstract

Sacral stress fractures (SSF) are one of the rare causes of lumbar and hip pain during pregnancy. The purpose of this report is to present a case of SSF diagnosed in the second trimester of pregnancy along with its diagnosis and treatment as wells as the type of birth. A 27-year-old primigravid patient presented with lumbar and hip pain at 25 weeks of gestation. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed SSF. The patient was followed up with conservative treatment. She gave birth by caesarean section at 38 weeks of gestation. Bone mineral density analysis revealed pregnancy-related osteoporosis in the postpartum period. Two months later, the patient’s symptoms were completely resolved. SSF should be considered in the differential diagnosis of lumbar and hip pain during pregnancy, and it should be kept in mind that these fractures may also occur in the prepartum period. Pregnancy-related osteoporosis is a risk factor for SSF. Caesarean section can be recommended as the type of birth in the women with SSF while considering the possible displacement risk for the fracture.

Özet

Sakral stres kırıkları (SSF), hamilelikte bel ve kalça ağrısının nadir sebeplerinden biridir. Bu raporun amacı, gebeliğin ikinci trimesterinde tanı konan bir SSF olgusuna tanı, tedavi ve doğum şekli sunmaktır. Yirmi yedi yaşında primigravid hasta, 25 haftalık gebelikte bel ve kalça ağrısı şikayeti ile başvurdu. SSF, manyetik rezonans görüntüleme kullanılarak tanı konuldu. Hasta konservatif tedavi ile takip edildi. Otuz sekizinci haftada sezaryen ile doğum yaptırıldı. Kemik mineral yoğunluğu analizi doğum sonrası dönemde gebeliğe bağlı osteoporozu ortaya çıkardı. İki ay sonra, hastanın semptomları tamamen düzeldi. Gebelikte bel ve kalça ağrısının ayırıcı tanısında SSF düşünülmeli ve bu kırıkların da doğum öncesi dönemde ortaya çıkabileceği akılda tutulmalıdır. Gebelikle ilişkili osteoporoz, SSF için bir risk faktörüdür. Sezaryen, bu kadınlarda, kırılma için olası yer değiştirme riskini göz önüne alarak, doğum tipi olarak önerilebilir.
