  • Title: Internal fixation in postpartum symphysis pubis rupture: report of three cases.
    Author: Rommens PM.
    Journal: J Orthop Trauma; 1997 May; 11(4):273-6. PubMed ID: 9258825.
    Abstract:
    We present three patients with postpartum symphysis pubis rupture whose severe complaints persisted after conservative treatment. All three ruptures were stabilized with open reduction and internal fixation. There were no postoperative problems, and implants were removed after a mean period of six months. Patients were free of complaints after implant removal. In select cases, operative treatment of postpartum symphysiolysis may be indicated.
