ABSTRACT
Fracture-dislocation of the sacrum that has not yet fully developed is common in the distal sacrococcygeal joint of children, but this injury is rarely seen in 1st Sacrum. Most of these patients have a severe neurological deficit, so this injury generally requires surgical decompression. We managed a three year old patient who had a S1 fracture-dislocation without a neurological deficit, and the patient was treated with simple skin traction and bed rest without surgery. The child had a satisfactory result, so we report on this case with reviewing the relevant literatures.
