Is Sacral Dysmorphism Protective Against Spinopelvic Dissociation? Multicenter Case Series

Mitchel R. Obey et al.

Summary: The study investigated the incidence of sacral dysmorphism in patients with spinopelvic dissociation and found a significantly lower prevalence compared to previous literature. Variations in sacral osseous anatomy may alter force transmission during traumatic loading, potentially providing protection against certain high-energy fracture patterns. Preoperative evaluation of sacral anatomy is crucial for safe screw placement and understanding the pathomechanics of sacral trauma.
