AI Article Synopsis
- * Under general anesthesia, the hip was successfully corrected through closed reduction, confirmed by imaging during and after the procedure.
- * Postoperative outcomes were positive, with the patient able to move with certain limitations, and initial follow-up indicated healing of the fracture.
Article Abstract
Case: A 30-year-old man sustained an obturator dislocation of a left total hip prosthesis with a concomitant ipsilateral fracture of the greater trochanter following a high-energy motor-vehicle accident. With the patient under general anesthesia, the hip was successfully treated with closed reduction, as confirmed with intraoperative fluoroscopy and postoperative radiographs. Postreduction, the patient was able to mobilize with abduction restrictions and had no additional instability. Short-term follow-up showed evidence of healing of the greater trochanter.
Conclusion: Obturator dislocation of a total hip prosthesis is an exceedingly rare injury. Closed reduction can be considered as a treatment option in the appropriate patient, with a satisfactory short-term outcome.

BACKGROUND Anterior hip dislocation is a rare injury that often occurs following high-energy road traffic accidents and accounts for approximately 7% to 13% of all hip dislocations. This report describes the presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of a 44-year-old woman with anterior hip dislocation and multiple comminuted fractures due to a vehicular crush injury. A PubMed search showed no similar cases have been reported in the English literature.

Background: Up to one-third of children with cerebral palsy (CP) develop migration of the hip, and the risk increases with a higher Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS). In progressive hip migration in young children, adductor tenotomy is an accepted treatment option to delay or prevent progressive hip migration. However, there is quite a large variability in reported results.

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of the articular branches of the femoral and obturator nerves (the innervation of the anterior capsule of the hip) is an emerging treatment for chronic hip pain. Body mass index (BMI) greater than 30, older age, large acetabular/femoral head bone marrow lesions, chronic widespread pain, depression, and female sex increase the risk of developing hip pain. Chronic hip pain is a common condition with a wide range of etiologies, including hip osteoarthritis (OA), labral tears, osteonecrosis, post total hip arthroplasty (THA), post-operative dislocation/fracture, and cancer.
