[Recurrent traumatic posterior luxation of the hip with defect of the sphericity of the femoral head. Value of x-ray computed tomography].
The authors report a case of traumatic recurrent posterior dislocation of the hip. The cause of the recurrence was related to flattening of the femoral head on its anterior aspect with incongruity between the head and the anterior wall of the acetabulum. The diagnosis was made by tomodensitometry.
