Though uncommon, cases of traumatic hip dislocation have been reported in children worldwide. Averagely, it is recommended that the acceptable duration for reduction after such dislocations is about 6 hours. Even with that there is about 5% documented chance of developing avascular necrosis of the head of the femur. The incidence of avascular necrosis increases with delayed relocation of the femoral head. We report a case involving a 6-year-old girl with a 2-week delayed diagnosis of a left posterior hip dislocation that was reduced and followed up for 6 years.
