Are all cases of floating hip the same? Further understanding of floating hip
More than half of patients with floating hips have a combined proximal femoral fracture. In this study, fracture of the pelvis or acetabulum combined with a proximal femoral fracture had a higher AIS score and higher risk of SNP than fracture of the pelvis or acetabulum combined with a non-proximal femoral fracture. Patients with a single pelvic fracture showed similar results, but patients with a single acetabular fracture did not. A pelvic or acetabular fracture combined with a proximal femoral fracture has a different outcome than a mid-distal femoral fracture, which may be a "true" floating hip.
