Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Neurosurgery
  • Rehabilitation Medicine

Background:

  • Severe hip arthritis can lead to significant pain and functional limitations.
  • Limb-length discrepancy often accompanies hip arthritis, necessitating corrective surgery.
  • Hip replacement surgery aims to alleviate pain and restore function.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a case of foot drop following hip replacement with limb-length correction.
  • To discuss potential etiologies and management of postoperative foot drop in this context.

Main Methods:

  • A case report detailing a patient's presentation and surgical history.
  • Review of postoperative findings and neurological examination.
  • Discussion of potential nerve injury during hip arthroplasty.

Main Results:

  • The patient developed a complete foot drop postoperatively.
  • The foot drop was identified during the examination after hip replacement surgery.

Conclusions:

  • Foot drop is a potential complication of hip replacement surgery, particularly when correcting limb-length discrepancy.
  • Prompt neurological assessment is crucial for identifying and managing such complications.
