ABSTRACT
CASE We present a case of an anteroposterior compression (APC) type pelvic ring injury that occurred after chiropractic manipulation in a patient with a history of quadriplegia. Emergent surgical stabilization was undertaken, and he had an excellent outcome with no complications at 3.5-year follow-up. CONCLUSION:
APC type pelvic ring injuries usually occur to high-energy mechanisms. We describe a case of a patient with quadriplegia and osteopenia that suffered a pelvic ring injury because of a unique mechanism. Practitioners performing pelvic manipulation should be aware of this type of injury in at-risk patients.
