Abstrakt: Background: Soccer is one of the most popular sports with millions of active professional and non-professional players worldwide. Traumatic hip dislocations are rare in soccer but can lead to major sequelae both physically and psychologically. The aim of this review was to obtain insight into the outcomes after surgerically repaired hip fracture-dislocation in soccer players as well as rehabilitation and prevention.
Methods: Two cases of a posterior hip fracture-dislocation that occurred during an amateur soccer match are presented and mechanism of injury, complications and rehabilitation were analysed. Follow-up of both patients was at least one year after surgery. Questionnaires and physical examinations were obtained to quantify and qualify outcome.
Results: In both cases the hip-dislocations were reduced within 3 h after injury. Semi-elective open reduction and internal fixation was performed within seven days. In one case, there was a concomitant Pipkin fracture and sciatic nerve neuropathy. There were no postoperative complications. Follow-up showed full of range of motion and normal hip functionality in both cases. However, both patients indicated a reduced quality of life and anxiety related to the accident.
Conclusion: Traumatic hip fracture-dislocations during soccer practice are extremely rare. Despite uncomplicated fracture healing after surgery and return of hip function, both patients still suffer from psychological problems resulting in a decreased quality of life. Further research is required to enhance psychological outcomes, as well as to facilitate return to pre-injury levels of participation and engagement in sports following traumatic hip fracture-dislocations related to soccer.
