Fragility fractures of the pelvis are low-energy pelvic ring commonly occurring in older adults. Early diagnosis fragility is important because possibility fracture progression and deterioration. Herein, we report imaging characteristics three patients that resulted delayed diagnoses discuss ways to improve diagnostic accuracy. We reviewed images Japanese with (one male, two females, aged 74–89 years), whose were confirmed by orthopedic trauma surgeons after initial treatments completed....
