  • Title: Posterior Hip Dislocation in Association With Anterior Column Acetabular Fracture, Femoral Head Fracture, and Sciatic Nerve Injury: A Case Report.
    Author: Jarragh A, Almesbah A, Lari A.
    Journal: JBJS Case Connect; 2023 Apr 01; 13(2):. PubMed ID: 37235706.
    Abstract:
    CASE: Posterior hip dislocations are classically associated with posterior acetabular wall fractures. We report the case of a 29-year-old man presented after a motorcycle accident with an unusual combination of injuries that included posterior hip dislocation, anterior column acetabulum fracture, femoral head fracture, and sciatic nerve injury. At the final follow-up, excellent outcomes were obtained with complete recovery of the sciatic nerve injury. CONCLUSION: A favorable outcome may be achieved in young patients who sustain this unusual compilation of ipsilateral anterior acetabulum fracture, posterior hip dislocation, femoral head fracture, and sciatic nerve injury with meticulous preoperative surgical planning and tailored patient management.
