DASHBOARD DISLOCATION OF THE HIP

A Report of Twenty Cases of Traumatic Dislocation

ROBERT V. FUNSTEN M.D.1, PRENTICE KINSER M.D.1, and CHARLES J. FRANKEL M.D.1

1 The Orthopaedic Clinic of the University Hospital, Charlottesville

1. The immediate reduction and traction treatment of uncomplicated dislocation of the hip gives uniformly good results.

2. When the dislocation is accompanied by a formidable fracture, the prognosis should be guarded, because of the possibility of development of aseptic necrosis and periarticular ossification.

3. The longer the hip stays out of place the poorer are the prospects of obtaining a satisfactory result by operation.
