Completed

• Conditions: Pelvis Injury; Child, Only

• Registration Number: NCT04756947
• Lead Sponsor: Charles University, Czech Republic

A retrospective epidemiological study of pediatric pelvic injury from level 1 trauma centre.

Hypothesis: In the pediatric population, majority of pelvic injuries is of type A according to AO/OTA (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen/Orthopaedic Trauma Association) classification, the treatment is mostly conservative and complications of injury and treatment are less common than in adults.
