Orthopedic trauma during pregnancy can cause serious complications such as premature birth, stillbirth and maternal morbidities.
We report the case of a patient at 38 weeks pregnancy who fractured the left ankle and the right fifth metatarsal after falling. Cesarean section and osteosynthesis were performed in the usual manner in the same surgical procedure. There were no postoperative complications.
Pregnancy and puerperium are associated with a hypercoagulable state. The early mobilization provided by surgical treatment of the fractures reduced the risks of thromboembolic events.
The approach adopted may be used as an example for future procedures done in similar situations.
孕期骨科创伤可导致严重并发症,如早产、死产和母体发病。
我们报告一例38周妊娠患者,其跌倒后导致左脚踝和右足第五跖骨骨折。在同一手术过程中以常规方式进行了剖宫产和骨固定术。术后无并发症。
妊娠和产褥期与高凝状态有关。骨折手术治疗提供的早期活动减少了血栓栓塞事件的风险。
所采用的方法可作为未来类似情况下手术的范例。
