Multiple Grade IV Pressure Injuries in a Young Boy: A Look Into the Pathognomic and Management of Iliac Crest Pressure Injury

ABSTRACT

Pressure injury (PI) not only exerts a physical burden on a patient’s body but also adds to his mental and economic stress. We, hereby, present a case report of a 17-year-old boy, who sustained a cervical spine injury after a road traffic accident, 10 months back, and later developed multiple pressure injuries over the bilateral trochanter and the left ilium. We discuss the pathognomic of the occurrence of PI at unusual sites like the ilium and our management for coverage of such defects.
