title: [Diagnosis, therapy and prognosis of Pipkin fractures (femur head dislocation fractures)].
abstract: Fractures of the femoral head combined with a dislocation of the hip are rare injuries. In the period from 1975 to 1993 nine of our 231 operatively treated patients who had a hip injury sustained a Pipkin fracture. According to the history of our patients and the results of the last 18 years we discuss the possibilities of diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of the fracture of the femoral head with dislocation of the hip.
