Fourteen patients with pelvic fracture treated in our hospital were reviewed. They were classified into three groups by Tile's classification. Five patients with Type A fracture were treated conservatively, five type B patients received external fixation. The remaining four patients with type C fracture needed both temporary external fixation and subsequent internal fixation. External fixation seems to be effective for controlling pain and bleeding. Our study results indicated that patients with unstable fracture classified as type C require radical treatment combined with transcatheter angiographic embolization.
