Abstract

The aim of this research is to perform a literature review of the treatments available for the anterior iliac spines avulsion fracture on the young subjects. We performed a systematic literature search for studies on spines avulsion fractures in young subjects from January 1, 2013, to February 2018; abstracts were screened by a single reviewer. For those studies meeting the eligibility criteria, full-text articles were obtained. From 112 studies found only six articles were included in this systematic review. All the studies belonged to level IV of scientific evidence. 64 patients suffered an anterior inferior iliac spine fracture while patients 36% patients suffered an anterior superior iliac spine fracture. 93.2% underwent conservative treatment and 6.8% underwent surgery. The anterior iliac spine avulsions fractures are rare injuries that occur in young male athletes and the conservative option is the most selected treatment modality.
