RECURRENT DISLOCATION OF THE HIP

C. Roger Sullivan M.D.1, William H. Bickel M.D.1, and Paul R. Lipscomb M.D.1

1 Section of Orthopaedic Surgery, Mayo Clinic and Mayo Foundation

Actual recurrent dislocation of the hip unassociated with acetabular fracture, congenital dysplasia, sepsis, or paralysis is very rare. Before 1945 only seven such instances had been reported. In the eighth case, which has been presented in this paper, the condition was treated by surgical reinforcement of the posterior superior supports of the hip (with a bone block) and by fascial repair of the capsule.
