The term traumatic dislocation of the hip gathers multiples types of dislocations, and more commonly, fracture-dislocations which have been subclassified. The rise of road traffic accidents with high-energy trauma increased the incidence of this traumatic injury. We report a rare case of a 34-year-old man with a traumatic obturator dislocation of the right hip with fracture of the ipsilateral femoral head as a result of a work injury. Closed reduction was done under general anesthesia. Radiograph and CT-scan showed a good reduction. Traction was applied for three weeks followed by progressive mobilization. Full weight bearing was allowed after three months. At two years’ follow-up there were no signs of osteonecrosis of the femoral head and the patient regained good function.
