| Popis: | Case: A 36-year-old bicyclist sustained an open anterior hip dislocation through the scrotum after being struck by 2 motor vehicles. There was no osseous injury present. The hip was irreducible by closed means and required open reduction via a Smith-Petersen approach. Postoperatively, the patient did not develop osteonecrosis of the femoral head but did have signs of mild osteoarthritis and heterotopic ossification. Conclusion: Open anterior hip dislocation into the scrotum is an exceedingly rare injury. Closed reduction can be attempted, but open intervention is often required. A Smith-Petersen approach allows visualization for reduction and does not violate the vascularity to the femoral head. |
