Abstract:
We report a case of traumatic anteroinferior (obturator foramen) hip dislocation in an adult. Femoral neck fracture occurred during reduction of the dislocation. Cephalic necrosis required total hip arthroplasty. We call attention to the difficult reduction of traumatic obturator formaen dislocation. We reviewed the literature concerning prognostic factors and propose a therapeutic attitude.
