AbstractThe aim of the present study was to present clinical and radiological outcome of a hip fracture-dislocation of the femoral head treated with biomimetic osteochondral scaffold.An 18-year-old male was admitted to the hospital after a motorcycle-accident. He presented with an obturator hip dislocation with a type IVA femoral head fracture according to Brumback classification system. The patient underwent surgery 5 days after accident. The largest osteochondral fragment was reduced and stabilized with 2 screws, and the small fragments were removed. The residual osteochondral area was replaced by a biomimetic nanostructured osteochondral scaffold. At 1-year follow-up the patient did not complain of hip pain and could walk without limp. At 2-year follow-up he was able to run with no pain and he returned to practice sports. Repeated radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging studies of the hip showed no signs of osteoarthritis or evidence of avascular necrosis. A hyaline-like signal on the surface of the scaffold was observed with restoration of the articular surface and progressive decrease of the subchondral edema.The results of the present study showed that the biomimetic nanostructured osteochondral scaffold could be a promising and safe option for the treatment of traumatic osteochondral lesions of the femoral head.Study Design: Case report.

A fracture of a ceramic femoral head is reported in this study. Fractures of ceramic femoral heads are uncommon and reports on this complication are rare. After 3 million cycles, on a twelve station hip simulator that tested alumina femoral head against polyethylene acetabular cup, fracture of the ceramic ball was observed. The retrieved specimen consisted of three large ceramic fragments from the same ceramic femoral head, a polyethylene acetabular cup and a stainless steel jig. Careful and detailed examination of the removed components was made. The fracture of the ceramic ball resulted in damage to the metal taper of the jig component which was fixed into the simulator.
