Abstract

Hip dislocation of the anterior–obturator type is an unusual pathology in pediatric orthopedics, but with
potentially serious complications in evolution. By the way, we present the case of a 14-year-old girl who
suffered a secondary anterior–obturator dislocation and high-energy trauma. A closed reduction was made in
the surgical block under general anesthesia, with good evolution and without complications in a follow-up of
24 months.
