ABSTRACT

Introduction: pelvic fracture in children is considered one of the most important injuries due to its high mortality. They are rare, but have a major impact on patients' functional outcomes. Objective: to evaluate the clinical evolution and functional grade in pediatric patients with pelvic fractures who have already been treated, either conservatively or surgically. Material and methods: descriptive-cross-sectional-retrospective study. Sample of 24 patients, aged five to 16 years with pelvic fracture, treated from 2016 to 2021. Clinical and functional outcome was assessed using the Barthel index and hip range of motion, as well as surgical or conservative treatment, accompanying lesions and injury mechanism. Results: to find out if there is an association between the Torode and Zieg classifications with the Barthel index and hip range of motion, an association analysis was performed with the χ2 statistic, obtaining a χ2 value = 19.213. with p = 0.004 for the Barthel index and a χ2= 14.253 with p = 0.0026 for hip ranges of motion; these results indicate that there is statistically significant association. Conclusion: the most frequent type of pelvic fracture in pediatric patients treated is type III on the Torode and Zieg scale, which according to the Barthel index is associated with a degree of independence and complete hip mobility arches, so the clinical and functional outcome in these patients is high in severe injuries.
