| dc.description.abstract | Abstract The pubic symphysis is a midline, non-synovial joint connecting the right and left superior pubic rami. The joint allows very limited movement of approximately 0.5-1 mm. Under hormonal stimulation during pregnancy, the widening of the symphysis pubis and sacroiliac joints occurs. Pubic symphysis diastasis is defined as the widening of the pubic joint of >10 mm. It is a rare complication of vaginal childbirth for which no gold standard treatment has been defined. Most cases are treated conservatively. A case of pubic diastasis in a 24-year-old G5P2A2L1 following vaginal delivery is reported. Management consisted of simple conservative treatment, which was sufficient in achieving symptomatic relief. | |
