Patient Story

#CaseOfTheWeek: A 46-year-old male was brought to the casualty of Nanavati

Super Speciality Hospital. He complained of pain and deformity of his right

hip with an inability to bear weight. X-rays & CT scan confirmed the

clinical diagnosis of a hip dislocation and an associated fracture of the

femoral head. The patient was taken up the next day for fixation of the

fracture. The safe surgical dislocation approach as described by Ganz was

used. Patient was discharged on the fifth day & gradually progressed to

full weight bearing by three months. The fracture healed without any

complications.
