Posterior dislocation of hip with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture: A report of two cases
2016
Overview
Posterior dislocations of the hip are known to be associated with fractures of the femoral head, neck, shaft, or posterior acetabular wall. However, its association with ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture has only been anecdotally described in the English literature. We report two such cases managed by open reduction (OR) of the hip and internal fixation (IF) of the intertrochanteric fracture. The first case was a 26-year-old male who was managed by OR of the hip with IF of the intertrochanteric fracture with a dynamic hip screw and had a good functional result at 1-year followup. The second case was a 36-year-old female who was also managed by OR of the hip with IF of the head fragments with Herbert screw and IF of the intertrochanteric fracture with a dynamic condylar screw. The patient had a fair, functional result at 1-year followup. With the increase in high energy trauma, these fracture patterns have become more common, and there is an urgent need to review the existing classifications so that these fractures are better categorized, and treatment guidelines defined.
