Case:
A 22-year-old woman underwent revision right hip arthroscopy (HA) with concomitant periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). The total procedure time was 5.5 hours. After completion of the 3 hour HA portion, the traction boots were loosened. Eleven weeks postoperatively, she developed a left claw toe deformity. After failed conservative management, she underwent lengthening of the left flexor hallucis longus and flexor digitorum longus tendons.
Conclusion:
This is a case of a claw toe deformity after revision right HA with concomitant PAO. The possibility of this complication should be considered in cases with prolonged intraoperative times because of the use of traction boots.
