QID 8176 (Type "8176" in App Search)
A patient with an unstable pelvic ring injury has just undergone an emergent laparotomy and currently has a packed abdomen. Stabilization of the pelvic ring is performed with an anterior external fixator. What is an advantage of using an external fixator with pins in the iliac crest rather than pins in the anterior inferior iliac spine?
