Arthroscopic treatment of a posterior labral interposition after a pediatric hip dislocation
- We report the case of a 13-year-old boy, who suffered a posterior hip dislocation from playing soccer. Closed reduction was performed urgently. Because of a nonconcentric hip after closed reduction, further imaging was done. An intra-articular bony fragment was identified. Arthroscopic treatment was performed. Through an anterior portal we were able to locate the intra-articular bony fragment, which was located within the region of the fovea. After lifting of the caudal enfolded labral complex, we were able to remove the fragment. Evidence of a grade 3 cartilage defect was present at the femoral head. We were able to reduce the enfolded posterior labral complex, which was stable afterwards without the necessity of additional suture fixations. The concentric hip reduction was confirmed on an anteroposterior view of the hip postoperatively. The patient was instructed to toe tip weight-bearing for 6 weeks with limited range of motion to 60° of hip flexion. Eight weeks after surgery, he was free of pain and discomforts. From our experience, the arthroscopic intervention after pediatric hip dislocation associated with intra-articular bony fragments or posterior labral complex injuries, represents to be a preferred minimally invasive method in contrast to open surgical procedures.
