    AbstractAnterior hip dislocations as compared to posterior, rarely occurs. Nevertheless, it is important to be prepared to manage it. Physical examination and imaging are crucial in detecting this type of dislocation and ruling out any associated fractures. The most important thing is not delaying reduction which is done in a closed manner preferably in the operating room and under general anesthesia. Post-operative complications should be monitored. As for rehabilitation it is still debated and no consensus was reached.Copyright © 2023 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
