ABSTRACT

Objectives: To describe a spinal-pelvic fixation system in a patient with a primary sacral neoplasma that caused spinal-pelvic instability. Description: A 26 years old female patient harboring a sacral tumor was treated two years before by surgery with a good clinical outcome. Intervention: The tumor recurred and it was successfully resected in a second surgery that required fixation by using a modified Galveston technique and bony fusion. Two years later, she suffered a new recurrence without neurological deficit.Conclusion: In patients harboring sacral neoplasms associated to spinal pelvic instability, tumor resection followed by modified Galveston technique is the best way to achieve stabilization and symptomatic relief
