The goal of treatment relies on restoration of pelvic anatomy with stable internal fixation, allowing early mobilization of the patient.The symphysis pubis dislocation (〉25 mm) is consistent indication for anterior internal fixation.3 In most situations, the fixation of the displaced symphysis pubis requires extensive exposure, which may lead to complications including blood loss, neural or vascular injury, postoperative infections, wound healing problems and heterotopic bone formation.展开更多

When considering potential causes of fetal death, direct trauma to the uterus, placenta, or fetus was not associated with a higher fetal mortality rate, compared with maternal hemorrhage. A cesarean section and splenectomy could res-cue the maternal life from the hemorrhage situation. Suc- cessful treatment of these rare cases is possible with careful pre-, peri-, and post-operative evaluation of the mother and fetus by a multidisciplinary team.展开更多
