  • Title: Unusual displacement of the femoral head in anterior traumatic dislocation of the hip. A case report.
    Author: Kirkos JM, Kyriakides AM, Kyrkos MJ.
    Journal: Chir Organi Mov; 2001; 86(1):69-72. PubMed ID: 12025106.
    Abstract:
    An unusual case of anterior traumatic hip dislocation which occurred in a thirty-three-year-old man is described. The femur had a 90 degree anterior rotation while the femoral head was exactly at the same level as when normal. The best term suited for this type of dislocation is "intermediate" or "inguinal" because the femoral head was dislocated anteriorly but remained at the normal level.
