Background: Pelvic fractures commonly occur from high velocity injuries like motor vehicle accident, industrial injury, fall from height and are associated with significant morbidity. The present study was conducted to assess outcome of pelvis fracture managed with plate osteosynthesis. Materials & Methods: 68 cases of pelvis fracture of both genders were included and outcome of the treatment was determined. Results: Out of 68 patients, males were 48 and females were 20. Outcome was excellent in 40, good in 13, fair in 4 and poor in 1 case. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Conclusion: Symphyseal plating found to be effective with better treatment outcome.
