On (b)(6) 2019 this patient presented at the (b)(6) emergency dept.
After sustaining a "hard fall".
Clinical evaluation and x-ray findings yielded a diagnosis of a bipolar hip replacement which was reached and the decision was made by the emergency room physician to attempt a reduction of the dislocation.
At some point during the attempted reduction, disassociation of the 28mm femoral head from the bi-polar insert occurred.
The patient was then admitted to (b)(6) m.
D.
For further evaluation and treatment at (b)(6).
