Hip dislocation can be a simple dislocation or it can be a fracture dislocation that involves the femoral head or the post wall of the acetabulum.

There are 2 types of hip dislocation

  1.  Posterior hip dislocation -dislocation of the hip is usually a posterior type however in rare situations it can be an anterior dislocation.
    • Posterior hip dislocation is the most common

  2. anterior hip dislocation – it’s rare
    • lower limb will be extended abducted and externally rotated.
    • Anterior inferior dislocation (obturator type)

Hip dislocation of any type must be reduced in less than 6 hours of injury.
• After reduction of the hip get a CT scan to see any loose fragments in the joints

• Hip dislocation with or without associated fracture can cause complications
• AVN (avascular necrosis)
• The risk of avascular necrosis depends on the interval between the injury and reduction of the dislocation.
• Urgent reduction of hip dislocation is mandatory to void these complications.

• Closed reduction should be done in less than 6 hours to check the sciatic nerve before reduction and after reduction.
• Peroneal nerve affected – when an injury occurs to the sciatic nerve due to posterior hip dislocation.
