title: Extensive perineal soft tissue disruption with 'open-book' pelvic fracture.
abstract: We present a case in which direct visualisation of the nature and extent of a perineal soft tissue injury following pelvic trauma was achieved through the use of multi-modality and multi-planar imaging. The case emphasises the importance of a flexible approach to imaging as a problem-solving technique after severe pelvic trauma.
