Brief summary

A retrospective epidemiological study of pediatric pelvic injury from level 1 trauma centre. Hypothesis: In the pediatric population, majority of pelvic injuries is of type A according to AO/OTA (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen/Orthopaedic Trauma Association) classification, the treatment is mostly conservative and complications of injury and treatment are less common than in adults.

Detailed description

Study design: Retrospective analysis (13 years), excluding pathological fractures. AO/OTA type, epidemiological data, mode of treatment, and complications were recorded. Data were analyzed using the Fisher exact test and the Wilcoxon test.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Epidemiological study of pediatric pelvic trauma	Follow-up of each patient for minimum 12 months.	1. The overall incidence of pelvic ring injury per 100,000 children per year. 2. The overall incidence of isolated acetabular fractures per 100,000 children per year. 3. The overall incidence of combined pelvic ring and acetabular injuries per 100,000 children per year.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Demographical study of pediatric pelvic trauma	Follow-up of each patient for longer then 12 months.	1. Comparison of the incidence of observed injuries by sex. 2. Comparison of the incidence of observed injuries according to the severity of trauma (single trauma vs. multiple trauma). 3. The incidence of the types of pelvic ring injury (according to AO/OTA classification) per 100,000 children per year.
