Planar Radiography, Pelvic Fracture, and Associated Complications

This report examines planar radiography as a common screening method for bone injuries and other diseases, such as kidney stones and lung diseases. It highlights the significance of pelvic fractures, particularly in women of reproductive age, and their potential complications, including gynecological injuries, internal bleeding, and sexual dysfunction. The report references studies on the impact of pelvic fractures on sexual interest and urinary tract function, emphasizing the importance of understanding these issues in patient care. It also discusses the role of pelvic shape in women's health and childbearing. The report concludes by underscoring the commonality of pelvic fractures in women aged 20-25, and their potential impact on sexual activity and urinary tract problems. The report also mentions how pelvic fractures can affect a woman's pregnancy.

Planar Radiography with Possible Pelvis FR
Fracture
Planner radiography is one of the most common screening tools for
detecting injuries of bones. Not only that, this technique can also be
used in the detection of other diseases like kidney stones, lung
diseases and other diseases that are detectable by x-ray screening. As
per the result of the x-ray screening tests, the patient may be
suggested to have a 3D imaging technique such as CT scan (Martz et
al., 2016).
Pelvic Fracture
• Pelvis is the stabilizing bones of the lower part of the body and it is
reported that, any type of pelvic fracture is one of the most common
injury for the women at their child bearing ages that is mainly 20- 25
years age.
• In a study, it is reported that, pelvic fractures were reported in case
of 105 women above the age group of 15 year s or more irrespective
of the nature of the fracture that is with or without dislocation.
• Among all the female subjects, 47.6 % of female had the fracture in
the antero-posterior ring and genital organ injury is reported in 15
women (Agrawal et al., 2014).
Complications of Pelvic Injury
• In case of pelvic injury among the women injury of the vagina and
gynecological are not at all common, however, in some cases , it is
reported that, these injuries can be associated with internal
bleeding of the individual.
• The cases of gynecological injuries are more common among the
women who are engaged u0nder the age group of 20- 25 years of
age .Such incidents can cause bleeding to abruption and also can
rupture the walls of the uterus (Shen et al., 2013).
• While analyzing the long term problem of the pelvic fracture, it can
be said that, sexual dysfunction can occur due to pelvic fracture
among women under this age group of 20 -25 years.
• In a study, it is reported that after pelvic injury, 45 % of women had
less amount of sexual interest. Apart from that , due to fracture
women had difficulty in sexuality. (Agrawal et al., 2014).
• The pelvic fracture can cause alteration of genitourinary
• function.
Conclusion
• In case of the women under the age group of 20-25 years the
cases of pelvic fracture is very common and such condition may
cause lack of sexual activity, problems related to the urinary tract
in the women . Apart from that, it is also reported that , fracture in
the pelvic bone can also destroy the pregnancy of the women as
well.

Introduction Importance of Pelvic Shape in
Women
• In case of female., the shape of the pelvic bone is very crucial as it
has direct role in childbearing of the women. The physiological
changes in the women during the pregnancy condition is
associated with the alterations of pelvic bone , plane of inclination,
internal dimension of the pelvis and also can affect actual shape
of the bone among the women (Trevathan, 2015).
• The structure of the pelvic of male and female is not at all same
and it is reported that female pelvis is broader than that of the male
pelvic bone.
• However, even in obstetric community it is believed that, any kind
of pelvic injury among the women can restrict them to give birth to a
child (DeSilva & Rosenberg, 2017) .
