pildihäireparandus

Pildihäireparandus is a medical procedure used to repair a fracture or damage in the pelvis, particularly targeting the pelvic ring. The term originates from Estonian, where "pildihäire" refers to imaging or visualization, and "parandus" means repair. The procedure is typically performed to restore the stability of the pelvic bones after traumatic injuries, such as accidents or falls, which can compromise the pelvic ring's integrity.

The primary goal of pildihäireparandus is to realign fractured or displaced pelvic bones, thereby alleviating pain and preventing further injury or complications. The procedure often involves the use of minimally invasive surgical techniques, where imaging guidance, such as fluoroscopy or CT scans, is employed to accurately place screws, plates, or other fixation devices. This approach allows for precise intervention with reduced trauma to surrounding tissues.

Pildihäireparandus is indicated in cases where pelvic fractures are unstable or involve complex displacements that cannot be managed through conservative treatment alone. Successful repair restores structural stability, improves patient mobility, and reduces the risk of long-term complications like nerve damage or pelvic organ dysfunction.

Recovery typically includes a period of restricted weight-bearing and physical therapy to aid healing and regain function. The procedure’s success depends on the severity of the injury, timely intervention, and proper postoperative care.

While specific data on pildihäireparandus may be limited, it is part of the broader field of orthopedic trauma surgery aimed at optimizing outcomes for patients with pelvic injuries. Its minimally invasive nature and the use of advanced imaging technologies contribute to higher success rates and faster recovery times.
