“…Letournel and Judet [13] showed that the posterior rim of the acetabulum bears the impact from the femoral head in this leg position. Acetabular fractures from sports are a rare occurrence and cases have often involved the same mechanism of injury as in our case [14,15]. Joint reactive force (JRF) is involved in hip joint biomechanics and represents the sum of the mechanical forces acting across the hip joint.…”

IntroductionRugby is the third most popular team contact sport in the world and is increasing in popularity. In 1995, rugby in Europe turned professional, and with this has come an increased rate of injury.Case presentationIn a six-month period from July to December, two open reduction and internal fixations of acetabular fractures were performed in young Caucasian men (16 and 24 years old) who sustained their injuries after rugby tackles. Both of these cases are described as well as the biomechanical factors contributing to the fracture and the recovery. Acetabular fractures of the hip during sport are rare occurrences.ConclusionOur recent experience of two cases over a six-month period creates concern that these high-energy injuries may become more frequent as rugby continues to adopt advanced training regimens. Protective equipment is unlikely to reduce the forces imparted across the hip joint; however, limiting 'the tackle' to only two players may well reduce the likelihood of this life-altering injury.

“…Epstein also reported much higher rates of traumatic arthritis in these patients. Most authors also agree that associated acetabular fractures treated by open reduction and internal fixation usually have a good to excellent results when anatomic reduction was obtained 3 , 5 , 7. Indications for operative management include articular displacement more than 2 mm, intraarticular fragments, unstable hip after closed reduction, irreducible hip, vascular injuries and ipsilateral femoral fractures 3 , 7…”

Hip fracture-dislocation is extremely rare in sports and is most frequently seen after road traffic accidents. This injury is associated with considerable long-term disability and rapidly progressive joint degeneration. This case report illustrates two cases of hip fracture dislocation that occurred while playing recreational indoor football (futsal). Futsal is a fast-emerging recreational sport in Malaysia and we are now beginning to see high-impact injuries rarely encountered in recreational sports. Therefore, futsal cannot be taken lightly and it is important to take adequate precautions to prevent serious injuries when participating in such sports.

“…But to our knowledge, there is no case reported that have a pure hip dislocation when playing non-contact sport like tennis. In English literature there are 21 traumatic hip dislocations with and without fracture in sports activity [2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Among all these -6 rugby, 5 soccer, 2 futsal and one each water skiing, equestrian, gymnastic, jogging, skiing, biking, sledge, basketball player had traumatic hip dislocation-only five of them were pure dislocations.…”

Introduction: Isolated traumatic posterior hip dislocation is seen as an extremely rare incident during sport activities. In this case report we aimed to present an isolated traumatic posterior hip dislocation of an amateur tennis player. case report: A 26-year-old female patient who was injured during playing tennis was brought to our orthopedic emergency unit and diagnosed with pure posterior hip dislocation. Her hip was immediately reduced under sedation which then a rehabilitation program was begun. conclusion: Amateur people generally play tennis on cement floor which may result in hip dislocation, if slipped. to prevent dislocations and these kinds of extreme injuries non-slippery shoes and shock absorbable relatively soft surfaces to play must be preferred by the players.
