(A) Anteroposterior pelvis radiograph of a patient who sustained a traumatic posterior fracture/dislocation of the right hip joint. She initially underwent an anterior open arthrotomy of the hip joint with excision of the femoral head fracture fragment at an outside institution. Subsequent to this procedure, she presented to our clinic with complaints of recurrent symptomatic instability and multiple dislocation episodes. (B) Coronal computed tomography reformat of the right hip joint showing the degree of bone loss (dashed white line). (C) Coronal T2 magnetic resonance imaging of the right hip joint showing complete ligamentum teres (LT) tear with associated femoral head bone loss. (FH, femoral head.)
