Description
Summary:Hip dislocation in children can occur congenitally in isolation or in conjunction with other con- genital abnormalities. Traumatic hip dislocations in children are relatively uncommon and anterior dislocation of hip joint is even rarer. We report such a case following unusual mode of injury in a 12-year-old child. The patient underwent suc- cessful emergent closed reduction of left hip. The clinicalcourse and follow-up assessment of the patient was other- wise uneventful. At 2 years＇ follow-up there was no evi- dence of osteoarthritis, coxa magna, heterotrophic calcification, in congruency of the joints or avascular ne- crosis of the head of femur.
