In 7 sacral plexus injury patients,6 cases completely recovered.[Conclusion]Micro-trauma technic with small incision treating the vertical fractures of the sacrum by intrasacral rod is a safe and effective method and has the advantages of minor trauma,less complication,short operation time and quick recovery.
