  2. Hip dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_dislocation

    Posterior dislocations is when the femoral head lies posteriorly after dislocation. [5] It is the most common pattern of dislocation accounting for 90% of hip dislocations, [5] and those with an associated fracture are categorized by the Thompson and Epstein classification system, the Stewart and Milford classification system, and the Pipkin system (when associated with femoral head fractures).

  3. Reduction (orthopedic surgery) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_(orthopedic_surgery)

    Orthopedic surgery attempts to recreate the normal anatomy of the fractured bone by reduction of the displacement. [citation needed] This sense of the term "reduction" does not imply any sort of removal or quantitative decrease but rather implies a restoration: re ("back [to initial position]") + ducere ("lead"/"bring"), i.e., "bringing back to ...

  4. Ortolani test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ortolani_test

    The Ortolani test is part of the physical examination for developmental dysplasia of the hip, along with the Barlow maneuver. [1] Specifically, the Ortolani test is positive when a posterior dislocation of the hip is reducible with this maneuver. [citation needed] This is part of the standard infant exam performed preferably in early infancy.

  5. Joint dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_dislocation

    When an individual receives a hip dislocation, there is an incidence rate of 95% that they will receive an injury to another part of their body as well. [45] 46–84% of hip dislocations occur secondary to traffic accidents, the remaining percentage is due based on falls, industrial accidents or sporting injury. [37] Knee

  6. Trendelenburg's sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trendelenburg's_sign

    One leg stance accounts for about 60% of the gait cycle, and during the stance phase, there is approximately three times the body weight transmitted to the hip joint. [citation needed] The hip abductors' action accounts for two thirds of that body weight. A Trendelenburg sign can occur when there is presence of a muscular dysfunction (weakness ...

  7. Galeazzi test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galeazzi_test

    The Galeazzi test, also known as the Allis sign, is used to assess for hip dislocation, primarily in order to test for developmental dysplasia of the hip.It is performed by flexing an infant's knees when they are lying down so that the feet touch the surface and the ankles touch the buttocks.

  8. Thomas test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_test

    However, in the patient with a normal hip joint, a positive test is a good indicator of psoas hypertonicity. [2] Other signs from the Thomas test: opposite/ contralateral hip flexes without knee extension- tight iliopsoas; hip abducts during the test- tight tensor fasciae latae; knee extension occurs- tight rectus femoris

  9. Hip dysplasia - Wikipedia

    The next method that can be used is called the Barlow maneuver. It is done by adducting the hip while pushing the thigh posteriorly. If the hip goes out of the socket it means it is dislocated, and the newborn has a congenital hip dislocation. The baby is laid on its back for examination by separation of its legs.
