Design outcomes
Primary

|---|---|
| -Radiological outcomes Displacement was defined a priori as >5 mm fragment dehiscence at the fracture site. Specific fracture morphology, such as oblique superior pubic rami fractures, and the zone of involvement according to the Nakatani classification were also evaluated. -Functional outcomes Mobility condition was monitored using the Surgical ICU Optimal Mobilization Score (SOMS) ranging from 0 (no mobility) to 4 (independent walking). Mobility status was further evaluated at 3- and 6-month follow-up visits, where patients were categorized into four groups: dependent mobility (wheelchair-bound or bedridden), walking with assistance (e.g., crutches or walker), walking with minimal support, and independent walking without aids or limitations. -Complications Local surgical complications comprised surgical site infections (SSI), implant loosening, and revision surgery. Systemic complications included deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism, urinary tract infection (UTI), and pneumonia | — |
