Abstract
We present a case report (with review of the literature) of a 3-year-old child who was struck by an automobile, sustaining a superior quadrant pelvic fracture that involved the sacroiliac joint, the adjacent ilium, and the acetabulum. This was successfully treated by open reduction and fixation with cannulated screws.
