In March 2021, a 64-year-old man who was injured in a fall was brought to our emergency department. He had lost his balance and fallen while harvesting avocados from a tree. He reported severe right hip and right lateral chest pain and was unable to move his right hip. His vital signs were unremarkable. He held his right hip in flexion and abduction (Fig 1a). The limb was neurologically intact and good distal arterial pulses were present. Plain anteroposterior radiograph of the pelvis revealed an inferior dislocation of the femoral head (Fig 1b).Computed tomography (CT) scan of the chest (not shown) revealed an ipsilateral nondisplaced rib (8-10) and scapular spine fractures. A CT scan of the

Introduction: Luxatio erecta femoris or inferior hip dislocation is the rarest type of hip dislocation. It can be caused by a severe trauma to the hip and the mechanism of injury is often very complex. Very few cases have been reported in the literature, and often associated with other musculoskeletal injuries. Overall about 3026 cases were reported till recently. Case Presentations:We came across five cases of Luxatio erecta femoris from our six year study period from 2015 to 2020. All five cases were males (mean age-28.4 years, age range 20–40 years). All of them were isolated injuries (pure dislocation without any associated femur, acetabular, or pelvic fractures). We will present the details of these cases along with review of literature, trying to unravel the mechanism of such an injuries. Conclusion:With the increase in high energy road traffic accidents, the incidence of luxatio erecta femoris in adults has increased. We could identify all those injuries and treated it with excellent clinical outcome. This type of rare dislocations if properly identified, we can manage it without much delay and very minimal complications. Keywords:Luxatio erecta femoris, dislocation, trauma.
