Аннотация
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Transverse sacral fracture in pediatric patients is extremely uncommon with only nine cases reported in literature so far.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to heighten awareness and treatment options of a rare injury of traumatic pediatric transverse sacral fracture with cauda equina syndrome.
STUDY DESIGN: This is a clinical case report and literature review.
METHODS: We report a case of a 13-year-old girl with a Type III Roy-Camille, Zone III Denis sacral fracture whose only neurological deficit was a cauda equina syndrome with bowel and bladder involvement. She underwent emergent sacral laminectomy and surgical stabilization to decompress the cauda equina.
RESULTS: The patient regained bowel and bladder function at 6-month follow-up.
CONCLUSIONS: This case is presented to highlight the rarity of a pediatric transverse sacral fracture, which requires a high index of suspicion as early decompression helps in reversing the neurological deficit.
