The adult human pubic symphysis: a systematic review.
The pubic symphysis is a unique joint consisting of a fibrocartilaginous disc sandwiched between the articular surfaces of the pubic bones. It resists tensile, shearing and compressive forces and is capable of a small amount of movement under physiological conditions in most adults (up to 2 mm shift and 1° rotation). During pregnancy, circulating hormones such as relaxin induce resorption of th...
متن کاملIntrapartum Pubic Symphysis Disruption
During pregnancy, high progesterone and relaxin levels produce physiological ligament relaxation on the pelvis. Therefore, moderate pubic symphysis and sacroiliac joints relaxing provide birth canal widening, thereby facilitating vaginal delivery. Sometimes, functional pain or pelvic instability may occur during pregnancy or puerperium, which is defined as symptomatic pelvic girdle relaxation. ...
متن کاملOverlapped Pubic Symphysis; a Case Report and Review of the Literature
Overlapped pubic symphysis is a rare but serious pelvic injury. This study presents a case of overlapped dislocation of the pubic symphysis. He was managed by closed reduction under general anesthesia. The patient had urethral transsection.At the latest follow up, seven months post injury; he was able to walk well without any pelvic pain. However, his urologic problems were continued. We also r...
متن کاملSeptic arthritis of the pubic symphysis.
Septic arthritis of the pubic symphysis developed in a previously healthy 13-year-old boy. Blood cultures and the culture of material taken by joint aspiration of the pubic symphysis under radioscopic control yielded Staphilococcus aureus. Early treatment with parenteral antibiotics prevented the development of osteomyelitis of the pubic rami in our patient. Open debridement was not necessary.
متن کاملNormal stress pattern of the pubic symphysis
THE PELVIC RING IS STRESSED BY EXTERNAL FORCES by partial body weight, by ligament tension, and by muscles forces stabilizing the hip joints. For the symphysis ossis pubis there exist data concerning the type and magnitude of stresses. In one-leg-standing pressure, shear forces are predominant, and in both-leg-standing tensile forces are acting on the pelvic ring. Rupture of the symphysis is pr...
