Iatrogenic Femoral Neck Fracture After Closed Reduction of Anterior Hip Dislocation in the Emergency Department.
American Journal of Orthopedics 2015 August
This is a case report detailing an iatrogenic femoral neck fracture (FNF) after closed reduction of an anterior hip dislocation. While iatrogenic FNF is a known complication of closed reduction, there are few published reports of the circumstances surrounding these fractures, and there has been no discussion of possible risk factors predisposing to this injury. This case report and review of the literature identifies the current incidence of FNF with closed reduction of anterior dislocations of the hip, as well as possible antecedent risk factors for this complication. As a result of this case report, we have changed our protocol for treatment of these injuries.
