Before complete dissection of the sacrum was done, we placed an angular-stable ilioiliacal LCP plate sacrum in order to ensure an anatomical position of the pelvis (Figure 1).

The radiological follow-up examinations over the course of time documented a nearly complete sacral osteoneogenesis including the neuroforamina with a stable fusion of the new sacrum with the posterior pelvic ring (Figures 2 and 3).
Selection of CT slices of the pelvis (CT and X-ray of the lower spine and pelvis were done in another hospital in 2015 due to lower back pain).
