Mechanism of Injury Differentiates Risk Factors for Mortality in Geriatric Trauma Patients.

abstract：:Theoretically, fissures and minor fractures of the pelvis sustained by the elderly after low-energy trauma may lead to thromboembolic complications. Few studies exist, but clinically, these injuries had been considered to have an excellent prognosis until a recent study reported a 10% fatality rate from pulmonary embo...
