Pelvis, Hip & Shoulder
Feb. 22, 2006
J. Huffman, PGY-1
Thanks to Dr. J. Lord
Also thanks to Moritz, Adam and Steve Lan for some borrowed slides and
images
Goals:
As per instructions, this is a radiology talk ONLY.
The focus is on reading as many films as possible.
Therefore, try your best to describe what you see
as you would when on the phone with a
consultant.
No epidemiology
No management

Pelvis: Anatomy
 Pelvis = sacrum, coccyx +
2 inominate bones
 Inominate bones = ilium,
ischium, pubis
 Strength from ligamentous
+ muscular supports
Pelvis: Anatomy
 Anterior Support:
 ~40% of strength
 Symphysis pubis
 Fibrocartilaginous joint
covered by ant & post
symphyseal ligaments
 Pubic rami
 Posterior Support:
 ~60% of strength
 Sacroiliac ligament complex
 Pelvic floor
 Sacrospinous ligament
 Sacrotuberous ligament
 Pelvic diaphragm
Pelvis: Anatomy
 Very strong posterior ligaments
 Disruption of these is the cause of mechanical instability
Arteries and veins lie adjacent to posterior arch
Pelvis: Anatomy
 Divided into 3 columns:
 Anterior superior column
(= ilium)
 Anterior inferior column
(= pubis)
 Posterior Column
(= ischium)
Pelvis: Imaging
 Plain films
 AP
 Inlet view / Outlet view
 Judet view (oblique – shows columns, acetabulum)
AP alone ~90% sensitive; combined w/ inlet/outlet views ~94%
 Limited in ability to clearly delineate posterior injuries
Pelvic films are NOT necessary in pts with normal physical
exam, GCS >13, no distracting injury and not intoxicated
At least one study shows clinical exam reliable in EtOH
 Gonzalez et al. J Am Coll Surg. 2002; 194: 121-5
 CT scans
Evaluates extent of posterior injury better
Superior imaging of sacrum and acetabulum
More detailed info about associated injuries
Pelvis: Imaging - Acetabulum
a) Arcuate line
b) Ileoischial line
c) Radiographic U (teardrop)
d) Acetabular roof
e) Anterior lip of acetabulum
f) Posterior lip of acetabulum
Pelvis: Imaging - Acetabulum

Pelvis: Imaging
Radiographic clues to posterior arch fractures:
L5 transverse process avulsion* (iliolumbar
ligament)
Avulsion of the lower, lateral sacral lip*
(sacrotuberous ligament)
Ischial spine avulsion* (sacrospinous ligament)
Assymmetry of sacral foramina
Displacement at the site of a pubic ramus
fracture
Pelvis:
Fracture Classification
Systems
 2 most common are Tile and Young systems
 Tile Classification system:
 Advantages
Comprehensive
Predicts need for operative intervention
 Disadvantages
Does NOT predict morbidity or mortality
 Young Classification System:
 Advantages
Based on mechanism of injury  predicts ass’d injury
Estimates mortality
 Disadvantages
Excludes more minor injuries
Tile Classification System
Type A:
 Stable: Posterior structures intact
Type B:
 Partially stable: Posterior structures
incompletely disrupted
Type C:
 Unstable: Posterior structures
completely disrupted
*Each type further classified into
3 sub-types based on fracture.
Tile Classification System
 Type A: Stable pelvis: post
structures intact
 A1: avulsion injury
 A2: iliac wing or ant arch #
 A3: Transverse sacrococcygeal #
Tile Classification System
 Type B: Partially stable pelvis:
incomplete posterior structure
disruption
 B1: open-book injury
 B2: lateral compression injury
 B3: contralateral / bucket handle
injuries
Tile Classification System
 Type C: Unstable pelvis:
complete disruption of posterior
structures
 C1: unilateral
 C2: bilateral w/ one side Type B,
one side Type C
 C3: bilateral Type C
Young Classification System
 Lateral Compression
 Anteroposterior Compression
 Vertical Shear
 Combination
*LC and APC further classified into 3
sub-types based on fracture
Young Classification System:
 Lateral Compression
(50%)
 transverse # of pubic rami,
ipsilateral or contralateral to
posterior injury
LC I – sacral compression
on side of impact
LC II – iliac wing # on side
of impact
LC III – LC-I or LC-II on
side of impact w/
contralateral APC injury
Young Classification System:
 AP Compression (25%)
 Symphyseal and/or Longitudinal
Rami Fractures
APC I – slight widening of the
pubic symphysis and/or
anterior SI joint
APC II – disrupted anterior SI
joint, sacrotuberous, and
sacrospinous ligaments
APC III – complete SI joint
disruption w/ lateral
displacement and disruption of
sacrotuberous and
sacrospinous ligaments
Young Classification System:
 Vertical Shear (5%)
 Symphyseal diastasis or
vertical displacement
andteriorly and posteriorly
 Combined Mechanism
 combination of injury
patterns
Young Classification System:
Morbidity and Mortality
Tile A1
Tile B1 / Young APC II
Tile C1/ Young VS
Tile A1
No Fracture, just an IUD
Tile B3 / Young APC
Tile A2 / Young LC II
No #, just SC air from rib fractures
Pelvis: Acetabular Fractures
 Four Categories:
1. Posterior lip fracture
 Commonly assoc. w/ posterior hip dislocation
2. Central or transverse fracture
 Fracture line crosses acetabulum horizontally
3. Anterior column fracture
 Disrupts arcuate line, ileoischial line intact, U displaced
medially
4. Posterior column fracture
 Ileoischial line disrupted and separated from the U
 Judet (oblique views) or CT helpful if suspicious
Pelvis: Imaging - Acetabulum
Focus on the acetabular fractures.

Etiology
 Adults: high energy mechanism (MVA)
 Elderly, prosthetic joints, kids < 6yo: minor mech
Types:
 Posterior >> anterior > central (> inferior)
Orthopedic emergencies:
 Urgent reduction after ABC’s / stabilization
 Significant neurovascular complications
 Often multiple associated injuries
 Mandate CT post-reduction
Hip: Dislocation imaging
Plain Films: ant vs. post dislocations
 Femoral head size
Posterior dislocation  femoral head smaller
 Lesser trochanter visibility
Post dislocation  adduction & internal rotation, lesser
trochanter not seen
Ant dislocation  external rotation; lesser trochanter
clearly visible
CT
 Indicated for more detailed evaluation of femoral
neck, intra-articular #’s, and acetabulm
Anterior dislocation
Posterior dislocation
Lesser trochanter
Proximal Femur: Fractures
Femoral head fracture:
 Usually 2° to dislocation
 Pipkin classification
Femoral neck fracture:
 Can be subtle (check lines, ‘S’)
 Describe as nondisplaced (15-20%) vs displaced
Intertrochanteric fracture:
 High energy or weak bone
 Classify according to number of bone fragments
(e.g. two-part)
Displaced femoral neck fracture
Nondisplaced femoral neck #
Two-part intertrochanteric fracture
Three-part intertrochanteric #
Proximal Femur: Fractures
Isolated trochanter fracture:
 Rare (women more than men)
 Direct fall or avulsion by iliopsoas
 Outpt management
Subtrochanteric fracture:
 #’s b/w lesser trochanter & point 5 cm distal
 Common site for pathologic fractures
 Vague symptoms
Occult fracture:
 ~%5 of hip fractures not seen radiographically

 Should see no overlap of humerus over the
glenoid

evaluation

AC Separation: Classification
 Type I
 Sprain of the AC joint
 CC distance maintained (N = 1113mm)
 Type II

coracoclavicular ligaments as well
as muscle attachements
 Joint space widened
 CC space is increased
(5mm difference from uninjured
side)
 Clavicle is displaced
