Background

Orthopedic emergency; reduction should occur w/in 6hr
High-energy trauma is primary mechanism
Types:
- Posterior
  - 90% of hip dislocations
  - Acetabular fractures may result as well
- Anterior
  - 10% of hip dislocations
  - Can be superior (pelvic) or inferior (obturator)
  - Neurovascular compromise is unusual

Clinical Features

Posterior Dislocation
- Extremity is shortened, internally rotated, and adducted

Imaging

Hip AP and lateral views
Also consider Judet views or CT to evaluate acetabulum (esp for posterior dislocation)

Management

Reduce

-Posterior = force applied to flexed knee and hip (e.g. dashboard)
+==Management==
+*Reduce
-Anterior = direct blow to posterior hip or posterior force to abducted leg

-Central = direct impact to lateral aspect.
-Mortality primarily due to associated injuries
-Head, thorax & pelvis
-==Diagnosis==
-Shortened, adducted & internally rotated. Hip and knee in slight flexion
-NB: not true if there is associated femoral fx
-Look for:
-#Loss of sensat posterior leg/foot (sciatic nerve)
-#Loss of dorsiflexion (peroneal branch) or plantar flexion (tibial branch)
-#LE pale / cool to touch (femoral art)
-==Workup==
-Usually obvious, but can be subtle on single AP view
-Typically femoral head is seen lateral and superior to acetabulum
-CT very accurate, and helps especially in delineating acetabular injury (where plain films are notoriously poor)
-==Treatment==
-===Reduction===
-Multiple techniques described (Allis/Stimson)
-All involve longitudinal traction to unlock the femoral head, with gentle internal/external rotation to seat it in the acetabulum
-ED success rate for native hip dislocation/reduction unclear
-(10% reported, but not a pure series)
-==Prognosis==
-#Other injuries/life threats
-#Avascular necrosis (AVN)
-##Occurs in 10-20% of cases
-##Time-dependant phenomenon
-##6-hours is the cut-off
-#Sciatic Nerve injury: 10-15%
-##Usually neuropraxia with eventual recovery expected
-##Incidence of this 2.5X with delay > 6 hours for reduction
-##Osteoarthritis: 10%-35%  30-70% after open-reduction
