    AbstractA case of traumatic hemipelvectomy with survival is presented, apparently the sixth reported case in the literature. Following complete left hemipelvectomy and fracture of the right acetabulum, the patient recovered, demonstrated voluntary bowel and urinary control, was full weight bearing on crutches (against advice), and refused a bucket seat or prosthesis, as well as neurosurgical consultation. The patient was then unfortunately lost to followup.
