Abstract

Traumatic dislocation of the hip in childhood is a rare injury. Treatment usually consists of a closed reduction and some form of immobilization. Inability to obtain a concentric reduction by closed means is commonly attributable to soft-tissue interposition. This is a report of a method not previously described for obtaining reduction of a nonconcentrically reduced traumatic hip dislocation without an open surgical procedure.
