%X UNASSIGNED: The incidence of ipsilateral fracture of the shaft of the femur and dislocation of the hip are extremely rare injuries. However, the incidence of complex fractures is increasing day by day due to an increasing variety of traumatic mechanisms. This type of injury constitutes various diagnostic and treatment difficulties for the surgeon. Such injuries should be managed on an urgent basis for better functional outcomes.
UNASSIGNED: We hereby describe two such cases: First case hip was reduced using external fixator pins, stabilization of the shaft femur fracture was done with an external fixator and the second case hip was reduced with bone holding clamps and the shaft femur fracture was fixed with interlocking nail.
UNASSIGNED: Fixator-assisted closed reductions are the first line of treatment in the management of posterior dislocation hip complicated with ipsilateral femoral shaft fractures. If closed reduction fails, fracture site can be opened and direct forces can be applied to the proximal femur to aid hip reduction with minimum complications.
