老年人骨盆脆性骨折的诊治进展

Progress in diagnosis and treatment of fragility fractures of pelvis in the elderly

摘要:

骨盆骨折的高龄化及脆性骨折发生率的逐年升高使得老年人骨盆脆性骨折进入医疗从业者的关注视野。低骨密度、日常生活能力下降和易跌倒是导致老年人骨盆骨折的主要危险因素。为了兼顾骨折特点及对治疗的提示意义,Rommens提出了骨盆脆性骨折分型。笔者主要围绕这一分型介绍了目前老年人骨盆脆性骨折在影像学检查和微创外科治疗方面的研究进展。

Abstract:

With the increasing morbidity of fragility fractures of the pelvis due to aging, the disease becomes a rising concern in medical professionals. Low bone density, impairments in activities of daily living, and propensity to fall are the main risk factors of pelvic fractures among the elderly. Considering the characteristics of fragility fractures and its significances in the options of treatments, Rommens and his colleagues developed a comprehensive classification system for fragility fractures of the pelvis. Based on this new classification system, we thereby introduce the progresses in radiological examination and minimally invasive surgical treatment for fragility fractures of the pelvis.
