Objectives: To report the effectiveness of open reduction and internal (screw) fixation treatment performed to treat dislocation of the first coccygeal vertebra.
Summary of Literature Review: Most treatment methods for coccygeal dislocation were conservative treatment for acute coccygodynia and coccygectomy for chronic coccygodynia.
Materials and Methods: A 18-year-old female presented with severe coccygodynia due to a fall down the stairs. Computed tomography showed dislocation of the first coccygeal vertebra. We performed open reduction and internal fixation with a 4.0-mm shortthread cancellous screw with a washer, with no additional procedure for bone union.
Results: Union was achieved 10 weeks postoperatively.
Conclusions: Open reduction and internal (screw) fixation can be a useful method for coccygeal vertebra dislocation.
