S2-alar-iliac screw and S1 pedicle screw fixation for the treatment of non-osteoporotic sacral fractures: a finite element study

Abstract Background Five different sacral fracture fixation methods were compared using finite element (FE) analysis to study their biomechanical characteristics. Methods Denis type I sacral fractures were created by FE modeling. Five different fixation methods for the posterior pelvic ring were sim...
