The hip joint is characterized by high anatomical stability. Therefore, hip dislocation usually attributed to a high-energy traumatic incident and may be associated with acetabular fractures or fractures of the femoral head, neck or shaft. Additionally, traumatic anterior dislocation of hip joint is rare; moreover, cases combined with ipsilateral intertrochanteric femur fractures are even rarer and information concerning them is limited to case reports. Recurrent anterior dislocations are extremely rare and have been reported only in individual case reports. This paper reports a case of recurrent anterior hip dislocation following satisfactory reduction and fixation for managing traumatic anterior hip dislocation combined with an ipsilateral intertrochanteric fracture of the femur, and reviews the relevant literature.
