Background There is not much literature available on coccygeal fractures, only a few case reports. We present a first series of 15 cases of coccygeal fractures in adults as a result of similar mode of trauma due to fall on frozen snow during the winter months in the valley of Kashmir. Material and Methods: The study included patients with coccygeal fractures that occurred as a result of direct fall due to slip on ice during the winter months, December to February in the valley of Kashmir. Study was done over a period of 5 years (2007 to 2012) and included a total of 15 patients. Results: 15 cases of coccygeal fractures with an age group of 48 to 72 (average 65 years), 12 females and 3 males is presented. All patients were managed conservatively with uneventful recovery. Conclusion: Our study revealed coccygeal fractures mostly occur in elderly age group with underlying osteoporosis. Although most cases can be managed conservatively with uneventful recovery, measures should be taken to avoid fall related trauma in winters especially in older age group.
