Comparison of minimally invasive and open spinopelvic fixation reveals comparable outcomes in patients with unstable sacral fractures, suggesting a viable alternative.
Minimally invasive spinopelvic fixation offers a comparable reduction quality and functional outcome to the open approach, while significantly reducing operative time, blood loss, and length of hospitalisation. This technique may be considered a valuable alternative for unstable sacral fractures in cases where closed reduction is achievable.
