Summary

The goal of this retrospective observational study is to evaluate the preliminary clinical and functional outcomes of total extraperitoneal approach (O-TEP) symphysial plating in patients with pubic symphysis diastasis (PSD). The study involved 15 patients (90% male, mean age 40) treated between March 2022 and May 2024. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the clinical outcomes (e.g., VAS scores, Iowa Pelvic Scores, Majeed scores) following O-TEP symphysial plating? What are the surgical outcomes, including operating time, blood loss, and complications, associated with this minimally invasive technique? Participants underwent: Total extraperitoneal endoscopic symphysial plating, with follow-up assessments including postoperative pain scores, radiographs, and functional outcome evaluations using the Iowa Pelvic and Majeed scores. Researchers will analyze the outcomes to see if this approach offers advantages over traditional open surgery, potentially reducing complications and improving recovery in PSD patients.
