A Rare Case : Traumatic Posterior Hip Dislocation Associated with Anterior Column and Incomplete Posterior Column Acetabular Fracture

Abstract

Introduction: The hip is among the most solid joints within the human body that took a lot of force to dislocate it. Hip dislocation is frequently associated with acetabulum fracture. Although traumatic posterior hip dislocation is rarely involved anterior column fracture. Case Presentation: We describe a rare case of traumatic posterior dislocation of hip associated with anterior column and incomplete posterior column acetabular fracture in a young female following road traffic accident. The patient hip dislocation was reduced with closed reduction and perfomed open reduction and fixation under C-Arm for acetabular fracture management. Assessment of anterior and posterior acetabular column was revealed stable after fixation. The goals are to maximize the patient's ability to function, enable early recovery to function. The patient was able to flex her left hip at 6 weeks after the surgery. Conclusion: This case highlights a rare case of the traumatic posterior hip dislocation associated with anterior column and incomplete posterior column acetabular fracture, attempts to elucidate the mechanism of injury and perform prompt reduction to achieve a better patient outcome.
