Abstract

Femoral head fracture associated with posterior dislocation of the hip had been considered a rare industrial injury. However, with advances in high-speed travel its incidence increased. Previously, intertrochanteric fractures associated with posterior dislocation of hip had not been reported. Here, we report on cases of intertrochanteric fracture associated with posterior dislocation of the hip.
