We treated 5 patients (5 men) for traumatic hip dislocation with femoral head fracture in our hospital between 1997 and 2003. The mean age at time of fracture was 48.6 years (range, 19-68 years). Duration of follow-up was an average of 13.5 months. The fracture type in these cases were classified according to Pipkin’s classification into type I (1 case), type II (2 cases), type III (1 case), and type IV (1 case). 3 cases of type I and type II were treated by osteosynthesis. 1 case of type III was treated by hemiarthroplasty. 1 case of type IV was treated by bone fragment extirpation 8 weeks after failed conservative treatment by only closed reduction. None of the cases developed avascular necrosis or osteoarthrosis during the follow-up period.
