Abstract

With increasing numbers of road traffic accidents, dislocation of the hip associated with fracture of the femoral head is becoming more common. Seven cases are presented. Treatment of this injury is difficult but it is suggested that conservative methods should be considered initially. Long-term follow-up is necessary as many of these patients develop late complications.
