A case of pure anterior lumbosacral dislocation without fracture of the posterior arch has been seen by the authors. The patient was a woman who was six months pregnant at the time of injury. The dislocation was not recognised at first. Four months later, after delivery, function was poor. The displacement was reduced surgically and fixed by plates and screws using a posterior approach.
