Abstract EN
Transverse sacral fracture is a rare entity in the pediatric age group, primarily resulting from a fall from height.
This case report stresses the importance of proper neurological assessment, adequate imaging and highlights different modalities of management of this fracture.
We report a case of a 13-year-old child with type III Roy-Camille sacral fracture with associated bladder and bowel dysfunction.
The patient underwent spinopelvic fixation and decompression of the sacral canal.
The patient partially regained bowel and urinary function and had improved motor function after three months of follow-up.
Operative management is generally advocated for such fractures.
