Ohmori T, et al. - In this trial, the authors aimed to evaluate the efficacy of external fixation (EF) of pelvic fractures in reducing the mortality of patients with an unstable pelvic ring fracture. Additionally, they identified the isolated unstable pelvic ring fractures for excluding the possibility of loss of blood from other injuries. Data demonstrated an association between a notably lower risk of death with the use of EF for treating unstable pelvic ring fractures, especially in cases of severe fractures.
