'''Pelvic Fracture'''

A '''pelvic fracture''' is a break in one or more bones of the [[pelvis]]. The pelvis is a ring-like structure of bones located at the lower end of the [[trunk]].

==Causes==

Pelvic fractures can occur as a result of high-energy events, such as car or motorcycle crashes, falls from significant heights, and crushing accidents. They can also occur in people with [[osteoporosis]] who sustain a low-energy fall.

==Symptoms==

Symptoms of a pelvic fracture may include pain and tenderness in the [[groin]] or [[hip]] area, difficulty walking or standing, and in severe cases, internal bleeding which can lead to shock.

==Diagnosis==

Diagnosis of a pelvic fracture is typically made through a combination of physical examination and imaging tests, such as [[X-ray]]s, [[CT scan]]s, or [[MRI]]s.

==Treatment==

Treatment for a pelvic fracture depends on the severity of the injury. Mild fractures may be treated with rest, pain medication, and physical therapy. Severe fractures may require surgery to realign the bones and stabilize the pelvis.

==Prognosis==

The prognosis for a pelvic fracture depends on the severity of the fracture and the patient's overall health. With proper treatment, most people can expect to make a full recovery.
