Unusual Combination of Hip Dislocation with Ipsilateral Femoral Neck and Acetabulum Fracture: A Rare Case Report.

Introduction: Traumatic dislocation of hip associated with ipsilateral femur neck and acetabulum fracture is a rare and devastating injury as a result of high-energy trauma, with potential complications of femur head aseptic necrosis and hip joint degenerative arthritis. Patients, postoperatively, may encounter decreased functional outcomes and serious challenge, during activities of daily living. Management guidelines lack clarity, with possible options including fracture fragments fixation or hip joint replacement.

Role of triangular osteosynthesis in vertically unstable transforaminal sacrum fractures: clinical and radiological outcomes.

Purpose: We aim to report clinical and radiological results of triangular osteosynthesis for a homogenous group of vertically unstable transforaminal sacral fractures.

Methods: Between 2013 and 2018, 22 consecutive patients with unstable sacral fractures were treated with triangular osteosynthesis consisting of iliosacral screw augmented by spinopelvic fixation. Patients were followed up prospectively as a single cohort.
