[Recurrent posterior traumatic luxation of the hip and anteversion defect of the femoral neck in adults. Apropos of a case, general review of the literature].
The recurrent traumatic posterior dislocation of the hip is exceptional. On the reported observation, an anteversion fault of the femoral neck was demonstrated. This deformity had already been pointed out in cases of simple traumatic dislocation. It had never been noted in case of recurrent dislocation. It appears logical in case of important fault, not to be satisfied with a posterior capsulorrhaphy, but to combine it with a femoral rotation osteotomy.
