Pubic Symphysis Diastasis (Diastasis Symphysis Pubis)

Separation of the PUBIC SYMPHYSIS. It is an uncommon complication of CHILDBIRTH causing postpartum PAIN, but it can also arise from other causes.

Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Pubic Symphysis Diastasis:

1.	ElementsIBA 12/01/2015 - "The intention of this study was to compare the biomechanical characteristics using 5 internal fixation methods used clinically to stabilize a pubic symphysis diastasis (PSD, Tile type B1).A 3-dimensional finite element model of PSD was simulated using 5 implants, including single superior plate (Single-Plate), superior and anterior plate (Dual-Plate), single cannulated screw (Single-Screw), crossed dual cannulated screws (Cross-Screw), and parallel dual cannulated screws (Para-Screw). " 12/01/2015 - "Comparison of Biomechanical Characteristics and Pelvic Ring Stability Using Different Fixation Methods to Treat Pubic Symphysis Diastasis: A Finite Element Study." 03/28/2022 - "Biomechanical evaluation of seven fixation methods to treat pubic symphysis diastasis using finite element analysis." 09/22/2015 - "Comparison of reconstruction plate screw fixation and percutaneous cannulated screw fixation in treatment of Tile B1 type pubic symphysis diastasis: a finite element analysis and 10-year clinical experience." 12/01/1990 - "Skeletal abnormalities included symphysis pubis diastasis (13), posterior element dysraphism (12), vertebral segmentation anomalies (12), clubfeet (six), and hip dislocations (five). "
2.	Pain-FreeIBA 01/01/2017 - "On radiograph, a pubic symphysis diastasis of 5.5 cm was noted and she was subsequently fitted with a pelvic binder on post-partum day 3. She experienced a full range of motion and was pain free at six-week follow-up, with a diastasis of 2.1 cm present. "

Therapies and Procedures

1.	External Fixators 05/27/2016 - "The aim of the study was to introduce a new percutaneous technique for the treatment of traumatic pubic symphysis diastasis using a TightRope and external fixator. " 05/27/2016 - "The new percutaneous technique using a TightRope and external fixator is a successful alternative for the treatment of type II traumatic pubic symphysis diastasis, which results in similar outcomes comparing to percutaneous cannulated screw fixation." 05/27/2016 - "Percutaneous fixation of traumatic pubic symphysis diastasis using a TightRope and external fixator versus using a cannulated screw." 01/01/2008 - "We present the following case report to highlight a novel use of a pelvic frame external fixator for treatment of a severe postpartum pubic symphysis diastasis with organ damage. " 12/01/2005 - "Three patients underwent closure of pubic symphysis diastasis by use of external fixator, one by screws and cerclage wires, and one by use of K-wires and suture. "
2.	Bed Rest (Bedrest) 01/06/2020 - "Pubic symphysis diastasis was confirmed radiologically and bed rest with lateral decubitus positioning was recommended. " 01/01/2008 - "Pubic symphysis diastasis has previously been treated conservatively using a pelvic girdle and bedrest with some success. " 03/01/2001 - "This is to reiterate the fact that this type of public symphysis diastasis is different from other types of traumatic pubic symphysis diastasis and can be managed successfully with absolute bed rest."
3.	Sutures (Suture) 11/01/2018 - "A biomechanical cadaver comparison of suture button fixation to plate fixation for pubic symphysis diastasis." 12/01/2005 - "Three patients underwent closure of pubic symphysis diastasis by use of external fixator, one by screws and cerclage wires, and one by use of K-wires and suture. "
4.	Pedicle Screws 08/01/2020 - "Totally 29 patients with pubic symphysis diastasis, with or without posterior ring instability, were treated by modified pedicle screw-rod fixation (modified PSRF) between January 2010 and December 2016. " 08/01/2020 - "Clinical and radiological short-term outcomes of pubic symphysis diastasis treated with modified pedicle screw-rod fixation."
5.	Obstetric Delivery 10/01/2013 - "Pubic symphysis diastasis during obstetric delivery occurs rarely. "
