Abstract

Among traumatic dislocation of the hip with fracture shaft of the femur on the same side is a very rare injury. Traumatic anterior dislocation of the hip is a relatively rare condition, especially when compared to the more encountered posterior dislocation of the hip joint. We report a case of traumatic anterior dislocation of the hip associated with ipsilateral segmental fracture of the femoral shaft with left ribs fracture and haemothorax in a 45 years old female following road traffic accident.
