hip dislocation occurs when the femur does not break and the force is transmitted towards the hip joint leading to a posterior dislocation of the femoral head with or without posterior acetabular fracture. we present the case of a 26 year old patient involved in motor vehicle accident. clinical and imaging (radiography, ct) examination revealed an intertrochanteric fracture associated with ipsi...

abstract traumatic hip dislocations are common in high-energy motor vehicle accidents. we present a case of a 43-year old man who sustained posterior hip dislocation with posterior wall acetabular fracture and ipsilateral intertrochantric fracture following a motorcycle accident. urgent open reduction and internal fixation of the hip fracture-dislocation and fixation of intertrochantric fractur...

conclusions a neglected hip dislocation with acetabular fracture can be managed satisfactorily with uncemented thr. bone reconstruction using chunk grafts and use of cementless components ensures long-term survival and also preserves adequate bone stock for revision, especially in young patients. introduction posterior hip dislocation of the hip with acetabular fracture is a challenging problem...

INTRODUCTION Injuries of the hip joint from pure hip dislocations to fracture dislocations have been described and classified by various authors. These descriptions do not include fracture dislocation of hip associated with fracture of the greater trochanter. CASE REPORT We report an unusual case of fracture dislocation of hip in which posterior dislocation of hip was associated with fracture...

INTRODUCTION Posterior dislocation of the hip joint with associated acetabular and intertrochanteric fracture is a complex injury. Early recognition, prompt and stable reduction is needed of successful outcome. CASE REPORT 45 year old male patient presented with posterior dislocation of the hip with transverse fracture with posterior wall fracture of acetabulam and intertrochanteric fracture ...

The incidence of traumatic hip dislocation has increased in recent years as a result of high-energy trauma. Anterior hip dislocation forms less than 10-15% of all traumatic hip dislocations. Only a few case reports describe anterior dislocation along with acetabular fractures. The acetabular fracture involved the anterior wall or column in all such cases. We describe a rare case in which anteri...

Dislocation is the most frequent serious complication following total hip replacement for subcapital femoral fracture. We report a prospective study, using matched groups, which compared the range of hip movement following hip replacement for arthritis and for fracture. The range of movement was significantly greater in the fracture group. We suggest that this is a predisposing factor for dislo...

The patient at the age of 34 and 150kg of body weight suffered left hip posterior dislocation with femoral head fracture in car crash accident. The patient had been admitted to hospital after midnight. The mechanism of injury goes as follows: axial force and flexion in the hip caused by impact of the car. The left leg clinically observed is in painful extension, with minimal movement, strong pa...
