Résumé
Hip dislocations are traumatic injuries that commonly derive from high energy trauma such as traffic accidents or falls from great heights. In addition, these injuries present an increased incidence after partial or total hip arthroplasty in elderly patients. Associate literature dictates that in case of a native hip dislocation, early reduction is crucial for avoidance of further complications such as avascular necrosis of the femoral head and post traumatic arthritis. In this article, we present a rare case of a native pure posterior hip dislocation after low-energy trauma. We also demonstrate the treatment and follow-up algorithm concerning this kind of injury.
