Abstract
Two patients with nonunion and malunion of an unstable pelvic fracture, presenting
with pain and gait abnormality, were successfully treated with a pelvic reconstruction.
The surgical repair consisted of a three staged procedure to perform the ostcotomy,
the reduction and the internal fixation. Both patients were satisfied with their outcome
and experienced no complications.
