Abstract
Fractures of the sacrum are rare and generally accompany fractures of the pelvis. Isolated transverse sacral fractures are even less frequent, and extensive neurologic deficits may accompany these injuries. This report describes an unusual case of extradural hemorrhage accompanying a complex fracture of the sacrum. The reversal of a serious neurologic deficit was notably aided by sacral laminectomy.
