Kite surfing has become an increasingly popular recreational activity worldwide. Thrill seekers can span the water at high speeds and reach great heights risking injury and death. We report the case of a young kite surfer who sustained a fracture dislocation of the right acetabulum that required specialised surgical management. We present this case with a review of the literature outlining the incidence of pelvic and acetabular fractures in the kitesurfing community. Overall, there is a low incidence of pelvic fractures in comparison with other orthopaedic traumas reported among kite surfers, and the most commonly injured sites are the foot and ankle. Emergency departments should be alert to this activity and its associated injury patterns due to its ever-increasing popularity.
风筝冲浪已在全球范围内成为一项越来越受欢迎的娱乐活动。寻求刺激的人能够高速掠过水面并高高飞起,冒着受伤甚至死亡的风险。我们报告了一名年轻风筝冲浪者的病例,该患者发生了右髋臼骨折脱位,需要进行专业的手术治疗。我们展示此病例并回顾文献,概述风筝冲浪群体中骨盆和髋臼骨折的发生率。总体而言,与风筝冲浪者中报告的其他骨科创伤相比,骨盆骨折的发生率较低,最常受伤的部位是足部和脚踝。由于风筝冲浪越来越受欢迎,急诊科应警惕这项活动及其相关的损伤模式。
