Sacroiliac fracture-luxation is a common injury that is associated with ilial and acetabular fractures of the opposite hemipelvis. Sacroiliac fracture-luxation results in an unstable pelvis and potentially collapse of the pelvic canal. A minimally invasive technique for repair of sacroiliac-fracture luxation is a viable option for repair of this injury and has considerable benefits. Reduction and fixation using a minimally invasive technique provides results comparable to an open technique without the associated morbidity of an open technique. Exact screw placement is facilitated by fluoroscopy to make sure that the disk space or vertebral canal is not penetrated yet allows an adequate length of screw purchase in the sacrum.
