Reduction of Hip Dislocation with Fascia Iliaca Compartment Block

Hip dislocation is most commonly caused by trauma. Reduction procedure and pain control of patients with hip dislocation in emergency service is quite difficult. Procedural sedation is generally used for the reduction. Pain management with drugs may cause a large variety of deleterious side effects especially in aged. There is inadequate information yet about performance of local block in hip dislocations that used to be performed in order to control the pain of hip fracture. In this report, we describe a 65-year-old woman who presented with right hip pain and limping as a result of trauma had fascia iliaca compartment block.
