Surgical Hip Dislocation for Small Posterior Wall Fracture After Hip Subluxation. (August 2020) - Shahien, Amir A.
Abstract : Summary: This case demonstrates a recognized association between an acetabular injury pattern and underlying morphology of the hip. In the patient discussed, hyperflexion of the hip results in the engagement of the present CAM lesion, and the resulting subluxation leads to a fracture of the posterior wall and instability of the hip. This combination of pathologies was addressed with a surgical dislocation approach to address both the CAM lesion and fix the posterior wall.
