Abstract:
We report a case of a 28-year-old male who sustained an indirect injury of his left hip while playing soccer, which resulted in a posterior fracture-dislocation. Radiological examination showed signs of combined femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). We discuss the role of FAI as a risk factor for hip dislocation in low energy sport injuries.
