Central acetabular fracture dislocation is usually caused by high-energy external trauma. However, 26 cases that occurred as a result of a seizure attack appeared in the literature from 1970 to 2007, with the seizure attacks themselves caused by many different factors. In this setting, the central acetabular fracture not caused by direct trauma might initially remain unnoticed leading to a delayed diagnosis. In some cases, this may lead to death as a result of massive blood loss. We here present a case of bilateral central acetabular fracture dislocation as a result of a seizure attack.
髋臼中心性骨折脱位通常由高能外部创伤引起。然而,1970年至2007年的文献中出现了26例因癫痫发作导致的髋臼中心性骨折脱位病例,癫痫发作本身由许多不同因素引起。在这种情况下,非直接创伤导致的髋臼中心性骨折最初可能未被注意到,从而导致诊断延迟。在某些情况下,这可能会因大量失血而导致死亡。我们在此报告一例因癫痫发作导致的双侧髋臼中心性骨折脱位病例。
