From 1977 through 1992 a total of 25 children (age 4 months to 14 years) were hospitalized for pelvic fractures. Clinical outcome and X-ray evaluation had been recorded and were retrieved for 21 children. In 3 patients pelvic fractures required surgery. All pelvic fractures healed uneventfully whether treated by surgery or conservatively. Concomitant injuries, treatment, and types of pelvic fracture are discussed.
