Abstract
Dislocation remains one of the most common complications after total hip arthroplasty, regardless of the surgical approach. While multiple reasons as laxity, implant position, improper implant choice, and impingement etc. might be leading factors for dislocation, an exact identification of the exact reason is of major importance, to plan for a proper surgical or nonsurgical correction. This article describes in detail the definition, etiology, reduction, and possible treatment options for dislocation after primary and revision total hip arthroplasty that are currently used at the Endo Klinik in Hamburg. It furthermore includes a distinct overview of possible surgical treatment options, based on the main pathology leading to dislocation.
