[Expert assessment of pelvic injuries].

Progress in diagnostics and therapy of injuries of the pelvis made in the last few years also brought advantages in the assessment of longterm outcome. Despite correct anatomical reconstruction of the pelvic-ring lumbal and sacral pain is still a problem. The intensity of pain doesn't correlate with the grade of injury. So effects of pelvic fractures on static and dynamic of the musculoskeletal system and especially the function of the hip-joint can be assessed clearly. Furthermore neurological examinations done by specialist to find out specific deficits are of utmost importance. Advanced radiological and technical diagnostics like computer tomography are significant for the assessment of pelvic injuries as well as the clinical examination.
