Diagnostic Value of CT in the Hip Joint Dislocation / 实用放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of CT in the hip joint dislocation.Methods We analyzed and compared 17 cases of the hip dislocation examined by X-ray and CT.Results X-ray plain film displayed hip joint dislocation in 15 cases,fractures in 10 cases,soft tissue swelling in 9 cases,widened hip joint space in 6 cases and bone fragment in 3 cases after restoration.CT showed hip joint dislocation and fractures in 17 cases,soft tissue swelling in 15 cases,widened hip joint space in 11 cases and bone fragment in 10 cases after restoration.Conclusion For the direction and the degree of hip joint dislocation,acetabulum fracture,bone fragment in articular space and soft tissue swelling,CT has distinct advantage.We find that CT may be one of a routine method in hip joint dislocation,especially after restoration.
