Introduction: Among all the traumatic hip dislocations, anterior hip dislocation is a rarity in which the obturator inferior variety is one of the rarest to be documented [1]. Here we present to you the case of our patient, a 35-year-old male with a six month neglected obturator variety of anterior hip dislocation treated by salvage procedure of open reduction without the need for intertrochanteric osteotomy and resultant preserved natural hip for ambulation as an intermediary procedure. Case Report: Mr. SH a 35-year-old male had a fall from 15 feet in his village and was treated by a local quack, Meanwhile the patient continued to experience pain and difficulty walking and after an ordeal of nearly 6 months during the lockdown period in coronavirus disease pandemic, showed up in our emergency room and was diagnosed with an obturator type anterior hip dislocation for which we carried out open reduction aided with Murphys skid through an anterolateral approach and stabilization using two Steinman pins and further immobilization by Thomas splint for a period of 15 days, which was done after confirmation of intact head vascularity under general anesthesia after which gradual mobilization was initiated. 3 months post operative, now patient is ambulatory with stick support with no deformity, no pain and with early radiological features of avascular necrosis (AVN) for which Total Hip Replacement (THR) is planned at a later date. Conclusion: Utilisation of salvage procedures and moreover those with minimal operative complications will result in better, natural long-term intermediary measure outcome with a resultant delay in joint replacement procedure which is in the better interest of the patient. Keywords: Anterior hip dislocation, open reduction, obturator inferior type, neglected dislocation, Anterolateral approach.

Core Symptoms

Dissociation is a disconnection between a person’s thoughts, memories, feelings, actions, or sense of who he or she is. Dissociative disorders can be described and understood using the combination of five core symptoms: amnesia, depersonalisation, derealisation, identity confusion, or identity alteration. They are frequently associated with previous experience of trauma. The challenge in diagnosis and the lifetime prevalence of approximately 10% in the general population and clinical psychiatric setting ensures the relevance of this case. We write about a 21-year-old gentleman with history of autism and obsessive compulsive disorder, but no significant medical history was presented to the emergency department with increased anxiety, subsequently progressing to agitation, pacing, and becoming nonverbal. No significant findings were uncovered on laboratory blood testing (other than prolactin 737 mu/L and phosphate 0.35 mmol/L), lumbar puncture, or brain imaging. Consequently, he was admitted to a psychiatric unit for assessment. The patient continued to present with severe disorientation, limited speech, and altered state of consciousness with occasional spastic-like movements. Antipsychotic and benzodiazepine medication was initiated, with no significant change in presentation. The patient continued to be witnessed wandering and having incoherent speech. First signs of improvement came 21 days postadmission with brief conversation and lucidity. This continued to improve over the next 7 days where he was reported to be at his baseline mental state. Environmental stressors including university examinations, the COVID-19 pandemic, and recent contact with his estranged father were possible precipitants to the episode. The patient reported almost complete unawareness of the psychiatric admission. A diagnosis of dissociative disorder, unspecified, was given. This case shows the management and diagnostic challenges of patients presenting with the aforementioned symptoms. There are no formal guidelines for the management of treating dissociative episodes, and this case report suggests the possible benefits of a drug-free period of watchful waiting upon admission.
