What is a hip dislocation ?
Hip dislocation is a condition where the ball head of the femur protrudes from the rounded socket of the hip bone (pelvis). This can be caused by trauma or a congenital abnormality of the hip joint.
Congenital dislocation
Congenital hip dislocation is an abnormality of the development of the hip joint. It manifests itself by instability, that is, abnormal mobility between the pelvis and the femur. This condition is also called developmental dysplasia of the hip.
Traumatic dislocation
Traumatic hip dislocation is a condition where the femoral head completely protrudes from the acetabulum. This occurs as a result of trauma.
What are the symptoms ?
Symptoms of hip dislocation include severe pain and inability to move the leg. There may be limping, complete impotence of the dislocated limb, as well as internal rotation and adduction. Shortening of the leg may also be present. In babies, congenital hip dislocation can be detected at birth during a physical examination.
What are the treatments ?
Doctors can often put the hip back in place without surgery, after giving medications to make the procedure more bearable. This procedure, called reduction, can be done with a variety of techniques. After reduction, the hip is immobilized with a cast or splint to help it heal. Hip dislocations can also cause other injuries, such as fractures, that require immediate surgery. It can take a long time to heal after surgery. If the dislocation is the only serious injury, doctors will put it back in place quickly. Delay increases the risk of bone tissue death. Bed rest is not recommended because it can contribute to complications, such as blood clots.
