RESUMO
After radiotherapy for pelvic malignancies, pelvic insufficiency fracture (PIF), as a type of late injury event for pelvic bones, cannot be ignored, because it can exert a detrimental effect on patients' quality of life, and might make patients disabled and threaten their lives. Meanwhile, PIF is likely to be misdiagnosed with bone metastases. In this article, research progresses on potential pathogenesis, general characteristics, risk factors, diagnosis and treatment for PIF were reviewed.
