Traumatic dislocation of the hip with fracture of the femoral head.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Six patients are reported with eight fractures of the femoral head associated with dislocation of the same hip. Seven fractures were treated by closed methods. One patient was excluded from analysis. After an average follow-up of 7.0 years (range 1.5 to 12 years) overall results could be classified as excellent in two, good in three and fair in two. These results support our conservative attitude towards the treatment of these fractures. The diagnosis and treatment of this combined injury are discussed and therapeutic guide-lines and recommendations given.

Traumatic anterior dislocation of the hip is an extremely rare condition in children and open dislocation is even rarer. Thisisusually caused by high-energy trauma. In the current study, we present a case of an eight-year-old child suffering froman open anterior–inferior dislocation of the right hip concomitant with pelvic ring disruption and an ipsilateral open distalfemoral fracture (Salter-H...
متن کاملPosterior Hip Fracture -Dislocation Associated with Ipsilateral Intertrochantric Fracture; a Rare Case Report
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...

Fracture of the femoral head and the acetabulum with traumatic dislocation of the hip is a severe injury representing various types and unfavorable outcome. We showed a 45-year-old man with Pipkin type-IV fracture and coxa valga. An immediate closed reduction was achieved followed by open reduction and internal fixation via a posterior approach 6 days later. However, dislocation occurred three ...
متن کاملPercutaneous manipulation of intra-articular debris after fracture-dislocation of the femoral head or acetabulum.
Traumatic fracture-dislocation of the hip usually warrants prompt management by closed manipulative reduction. In some patients, debris malpositioned between the femoral head and the acetabular dome obstructs a completely concentric reduction of the injured hip. To avoid damage to the articular surfaces, the debris between them should be removed in a timely fashion. Techniques for removal inclu...

Dislocation of the hip is a critical injury that results from high-energy trauma. This paper describes a case of posterior dislocation of the right hip in a 35-year-old woman with associated ipsilateral femoral head fracture. Initial treatment included reduction of the right hip through posterior approach and fixation of the femoral head fracture with three absorbable screws. After 15-month fol...

INTRODUCTION Obturator hip dislocations with an associated osteochondral fracture of the femoral head are uncommon. The treatment of these injuries is challenging and the functional outcomes are poor. Though the injury pattern has been described previously in literature, there are few published reports regarding treatment options. This case report illustrates a novel technique for fixation and ...
