Neglected Fracture Dislocation Hip -Recurrent Neglected Dislocation Hip In Adult

Neglected Posterior Dislocation of Hip in Children - A Case Report

INTRODUCTION Traumatic dislocation of the hip in children is a rare injury. We report the outcome of 2 patients of neglected hip dislocation which were treated by open reduction and internal fixation by k-wires. CASE REPORT We treat 2 children both girls (one was of 4 years and other was 7 years of age). In both cases dislocation was unilateral and was not associated with any facture. Both ca...

Neglected traumatic hip dislocation: Influence of the increased intracapsular pressure

AIM To investigate that the increased intracapsular pressure, during the delay period, can interrupt the blood flow to the femoral head. METHODS An observational retrospective study included a group of 17 patients with traumatic hip dislocation, their ages at time of injury averaged 26 (range from 3 to 70) years. Outcomes were assessed clinically and radiographically at a period averaged 11.5...

Dislocation and fracture-dislocation of the hip.

Of 54 patients with posterior dislocations of the hip of type I and type II (Stewart and Milford 1954), 47 were followed for a mean period of 6.7 years (2 to 11). Of these, 23 had dislocation with minimal lesions of the acetabulum (type I) and 24 had an avulsed dorsocranial fragment (type II). All were reduced by closed methods within six hours. The subsequent treatment of type I dislocations w...

Recurrent dislocation following hip replacement: brief report.

A new method of preventing recurrent dislocation following total hip replacement was described by Olerud and Karlstr#{246}m (1985). It involves augmentation of the acetabular component with a sector cut from another acetabular prosthesis and screwed to the original implant. This procedure was performed on three of our patients with recurrent dislocation, but in each case the hip continued to di...
