  • Title: Acute bowel entrapment and perforation following operative reduction of pelvic fracture.
    Author: Lin PS, Cavarocchi NC, Comerota AJ, Resnick EJ.
    Journal: J Trauma; 1987 Jun; 27(6):684-6. PubMed ID: 3599117.
    Abstract:
    The potential for multiple organ system injury with pelvic fracture is well known. This report illustrates a case whereby medially displaced acetabular fragments had become adherent to small bowel. Delayed posterior pelvic open reduction caused entrapment of this bowel within the fracture site followed by acute obstruction and perforation.
