    AbstractWe describe the case of an 88-year-old woman who presented with painful symptoms of the pelvis after low-energy trauma. Conservative treatment with pain therapy and pain-adapted mobilization was unsuccessful. Diagnostics showed a fragility fracture of the pelvic ring; therefore, we performed photodynamic bone stabilization (IlluminOss™) of the pubic bone and percutaneous cement-augmented fixation of the iliosacral joint assisted by computed tomography (CT) fluoroscopy. Imaging showed a stable healed fracture 4 months after surgery.
