Expanding the degree of SPSA between inserted pins in anterosuperior pelvic external fixation can be challenging due to the thinning of the iliac wing, which affords a narrow corridor for intraosseous pin containment. An ID of 60 mm allows larger degrees of SPSA while maintaining higher rates of cortical pin containment when compared to pins with greater IDs.
