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...

Introduction: Posterior shoulder dislocation associated with fracture of the lesser tuberosity is considered as a rare shoulder trauma. It can lead to the locked shoulder with a very high possibility of unsuccessful closed reduction. Case Presentation: In this case, the patient was a 30-year-old male motorcyclist with the right shoulder injury who had posterior shoulder dislocation with lesser ...

Bilateral hip dislocation occurring as a result of trauma is a rare condition. Simultaneous anterior and posterior traumatic dislocation of both hips is even more unusual. A case is reported of asymmetrical bilateral traumatic hip dislocation without an associated fracture of the pelvis or femur occurring in a young adult with no previous history of hip abnormality or ligamentous laxity. An unu...

Traumatic posterior dislocation of the hip associated with a fracture of the posterior acetabular wall and of the neck of the femur is a rare injury. A 29-year-old man presented at a level 1 trauma centre with a locked posterior dislocation of the right hip, with fractures of the femoral neck and the posterior wall of the acetabulum after a bicycle accident. An attempted closed reduction had fa...

Mechanism Shoulder dislocation is usually anterior (95-98% of cases). [1]However, posterior dislocation can sometimes occur. Inferior, superior and intrathoracic dislocations can also occur but are rare and will not be discussed further. Anterior dislocation is almost invariably traumatic. It usually occurs when people fall with a combination of abduction, extension and a posteriorly directed f...

Introduction Old neglected posterior type of elbow dislocations is not very common and generally requires open reduction. It was usually treated with open reduction and K-wire stabilization. We did a newer method in which in addition cruciate type ligament reconstruction; we have reconstructed lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL) and UCL (medial collateral ligament) using semitendinosus gra...
