title: [Osteochondritis dissecans of the acetabulum. Apropos of a case].
abstract: Osteochondritis dissecans acetabuli is a rare affection. The observation presented is one of a 23 year old man, who presented hip blockages in external flexion rotation. X-ray only allowed to find a sequestrum in the acetabulum by tomography-Arthroscanner confirmed the osteochondritis without cartilage rupture. Arthroscopy eliminated a cartilage lesion and directed towards a cavity filled by spongious bone through an extra articular approach.
