Abstract:
Fractures of the femoral head associated with hip dislocation are uncommon injury and all traumatic fracture-dislocation of the hip must be treated as surgical emergencies. But, there was no uniformity of treatment of fracture-dislocations of the hip were treated by operative and conservative methods in Chonbuk National University hospital were observed between March 1983 and January 1987; Operative treatment is included screw fixation method and fixation with bone pegs. And so, the followings were summsrized: 1. The most common cause was dash-board injury and patients sex was msle in majority. 2. Frequency of the type of femoral head fracture was the most in Pipkin type I, the next was type IV. 3. The better result was noted in operative treatment than in conservative method as above good. 4. Bone pegging method was relatively not superior to screw fixation. 5. The following complications were encountered, 1 case of sciatic nerve palsy, 1 case of traumatic arthritis.
