Abstract:
Minimally invasive surgical techniques reduce the damages to skin and soft tissue due to a high rate of complications following open reduction and internal fixation for dorsal pelvic ring injuries. However, they can still cause iatrogenic injuries to nerves, vessels and even organs because of reduced surgical exposure. Transiliac Internal Fixator ( TIFI ) , which was first designed by Füchtmeier, has been widely used in clinics because it successfully reduces iatrogenic injuries and ensures stability of internal fixation. This paper focuses on the principles, clinical outcomes, biomechanical studies and probable improvements of TIFI.
