The incidence of femoral head fracturesafter posteriorhip dislocation is approximately 5-15%, and femoral head fractures are highly associated with posterior dislocation. Femoral head fractures can cause avascular necrosis of the femoral head or post-traumatic osteoarthritis; therefore, diagnosis and appropriate treatment is important. We present a case of femoral head fracture without hip dislocation, as well as a literature review.

Abstract
The incidence of femoral head fracturesafter posteriorhip dislocation is approximately 5-15%, and femoral head fractures are highly associated with posterior dislocation. Femoral head fractures can cause avascular necrosis of the femoral head or post-traumatic osteoarthritis; therefore, diagnosis and appropriate treatment is important. We present a case of femoral head fracture without hip dislocation, as well as a literature review.
