Abstract
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) is a rare genetic disorder causing accelerated aging and age-related pathologies. Weighing benefits and risks on doing surgical versus conservative pain management require multidisciplinary planning and consideration in HGPS patients. This presents a case of a 15-year-old patient with HGPS with severe pain from bilateral hip dislocation managed with peripheral nerve block and steroid injection. This afforded her immediate pain relief allowing her to undergo physical rehabilitation comfortably.
