Pediatric Transepiphyseal Seperation and Dislocation of the Femoral Head
Pediatric hip fractures and dislocations are rare in practice and are related to high-energy trauma. The incidence of postoperative avascular necrosis is increasing, especially in the case of transepiphyseal fractures. Surgery is the most common form of treatment, and its timing is important for prognosis of the fracture. Patients and their families should be informed about the possibility of a...
متن کاملTransepiphyseal fracture of the femoral neck with dislocation of the femoral head and fracture of the posterior column of the acetabulum in a child.
We describe a 15-year-old boy with a posterior dislocation of the hip, fracture of the posterior column of the acetabulum and separation of the femoral capital epiphysis. To our knowledge no previous case in a child has been reported. Such high-energy injuries are extremely rare, and a poor outcome is expected. We advocate early referral to a specialised tertiary centre, and the use of a modifi...
متن کاملOsteochondral Autograft from the Ipsilateral Femoral Head by Surgical Dislocation for Treatment of Femoral Head Fracture Dislocation: A Case Report
As anatomical reduction of the articular surface of femoral head fractures and restoration of damaged cartilage are essential for good long-term results, many treatment options have been suggested, including fixation of the fracture using various surgical exposures and implants, as well as arthroscopic irrigation and debridement, bone marrow stimulating techniques, osteochondral allograft, auto...
متن کاملPosttraumatic Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head after Nine Years of Posterior Femoral Head Fracture Dislocation
Posttraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is the most serious complication after fracture dislocation of the femoral head. The rate of this complication was reported to range from 1.7% to 40%. Although the development of posttraumatic osteonecrosis normally occurs within 2 years of injury, there are some reports of the late development ONFH. The authors encountered a case of posttr...
متن کاملSurface damage to an Oxinium femoral head prosthesis after dislocation.
During open reduction of an irreducible anterior dislocation of a total hip replacement with an Oxinium femoral head, it was observed that the head had been significantly damaged. Gross and scanning electron microscopic examination revealed cracking, gouging, and delamination of the surface. Because of the risk which this poses for damaging the polyethylene acetabular liner, it is strongly reco...
