Factors associated with outcome of spinopelvic dissociation treated with lumbopelvic fixation
Injury, 2014Spinopelvic dissociation is a rare high-energy injury, which is frequently associated with lumbosacral plexus and cauda equina deficits. During an 18-year period, 36 consecutive patients with a H-type sacral fracture and spinopelvic dissociation were treated using lumbopelvic fixation with a minimum follow-up of 18 months.

Lumbosacral and Spinopelvic Fixation in Spine Surgery
Seminars in Spine Surgery, 2009Achieving fusion across the lumbosacral region has been a challenge in spine surgery since the advent of spinal instrumentation. The unique anatomy of this region and various biomechanical forces are some of the main reasons for the difficulty of attaining fusion in the setting of complex deformities in the lumbosacral region.

Intraoperative imaging and navigated spinopelvic instrumentation: S2-alar-iliac screws combined with tricortical S1 pedicle screw fixation [PDF]
Purpose: The present study aimed to assess the feasibility, safety and accuracy of navigated spinopelvic fixation with focus on S2-alar-iliac screws (S2AIS) and tricortical S1 pedicle screw implantation with the use of high-resolution three-dimensional ...

Fixation at the lumbosacral junction continues to be a challenge for spine surgeons despite advances in spinal instrumentation techniques. The poor bone quality of the sacrum, the complex regional anatomy, and the tremendous biomechanical forces at the lumbosacral junction contribute to the high rates of instrumentation-related complications.

Spinopelvic Fixation After Sacrectomy
2021Tumor resection and solid arthrodesis of the lumbosacral region of the spine are challenging. Tumors in this region as well as their surgical resection can significantly influence the biomechanics of the sacropelvis resulting in failure of axial load transmission.

Spinopelvic Fixation in Deformity: A Review
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2007Spinopelvic fixation techniques are evolving and now seem to be converging. Good S1 pedicle fixation is the initial key anchor point. The tricortical technique tests out as the best. Supplemental fixation options are available. The most efficacious seems to be iliac fixation, followed by two-level structural interbody support.

Anterior external fixation (EF), as the primary treatment for unstable pelvic fractures, is performed with patients in the supine position. In most cases, however, definitive surgery for posterior fixation is performed first in the prone position without EF. We report the case of a patient with unilateral and vertically unstable pelvic fracture whom we

Spinopelvic Dissociation: Assessment, Reduction Strategies, and Fixation Techniques
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2020Spinopelvic dissociation is a rare injury associated with 2% to 3% of transverse sacral fractures and 3% of sacral fractures associated with pelvic ring injuries. When spinopelvic dissociation is expediently identified and treated appropriately, patient outcomes can be maximized, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and treatment.
