Özet

© 2017, Acta Orthopædica Belgica.Our purpose is to evaluate the complications of open hip dislocation, which is used as a helpful technique in hip surgery. We have retrospectively reviewed 45 hips of 44 cases who applied open hip dislocation with various indications in our institute between the years 2006-2013. There were 27 males and 17 females whose mean age was 31,9 (range, 11-58) years with mean follow-up time of 56,9 months (range, 13-106). The number of cases with at least one complication related to open hip dislocation was 27. Within our series 14 hips have developed only 1 complication, 1 hip have 2, 10 hips have 3 and 2 hips have 4 different complications. Regarding Dindo-Clavien classification 17 hips were evaluated as Grade I (38%), 3 hips were Grade IIa (7%), 2 hips were Grade IIb (4%) and 5 hips were Grade III (11%). In conclusion, the absence of major complications after open hip dislocation does not make it absolutely safe. Open hip dislocations can only be indicated when trochanteric complications are considered. The patients need to be well informed on potential issues and risks.
