Abstract
A 52-year-old male sustained a road traffic accident riding a motorbike. At his admission, plain radiograph of the pelvis showed wide diastasis of the pubic symphysis, a midsagittal fracture of the sacrum and a fracture of the right transverse process of the fifth lumbar vertebra. We discuss the treatment of this rare injury.
