UNREDUCED ANTERIOR DISLOCATION OF THE HIP

Gawad Hamada

1. Un reduced anterior dislocation of the hip is very uncommon. Four cases are reported.

2. The aim of treatment is to correct the deformity, to improve the gait and to produce pelvic stability.

3. Osteotomy of the femur at the trochanteric level is the simplest corrective operation and will greatly improve the function of the limb.
