About Dislocated Bone Surgery

Dislocated bone surgery in pediatric orthopedics is a specialized procedure to correct a joint displacement where the bone ends are no longer in proper contact. Commonly performed on shoulders, elbows, hips, and kneecaps in children, it often involves closed reduction (manipulation without an incision) or open reduction (surgical realignment). The goal is to restore normal joint anatomy, stability, and function while minimizing damage to growth plates. Pediatric orthopedic surgeons use gentle techniques and sometimes internal fixation like pins or screws to hold the bone in place during healing. This procedure is crucial for preventing long-term complications like arthritis, chronic instability, or growth disturbances in a child's developing skeleton.

Key Highlights

Restores proper joint alignment and function in growing children.Performed by specialists trained in pediatric bone growth and development.Minimizes risk of long-term complications like arthritis or chronic instability.Often uses minimally invasive techniques when possible to reduce scarring.Aims to protect the growth plates (physes) to ensure normal future bone growth.Can prevent recurrent dislocations and restore a child's mobility and activity level./ul

Who is this surgery for?

Acute traumatic dislocation from a fall or sports injury that cannot be stabilized with closed reduction.
Recurrent (habitual) dislocations where the joint is unstable.
Dislocation with associated fracture (fracture-dislocation).
Dislocation with trapped soft tissue (like muscle or tendon) preventing closed reduction.
Congenital dislocations (present from birth), such as Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip (DDH).
Pathological dislocation due to underlying conditions like infection or neuromuscular disease.

How to prepare

Thorough physical exam and imaging (X-rays, CT, or MRI) to assess the dislocation and any associated injuries.
Medical history review, including allergies and previous anesthesia reactions.
Pre-operative blood tests and possibly an ECG to ensure fitness for surgery.
Fasting for 6-8 hours before the procedure as per anesthesia guidelines.
Discussion with the surgeon and anesthesiologist about the procedure plan and pain management.
Arranging for post-operative care and support at home during recovery.

Risks & possible complications

Infection at the surgical site.
Bleeding or hematoma formation.
Damage to nerves or blood vessels near the joint.
Stiffness or reduced range of motion in the joint.
Failure of fixation, leading to re-dislocation.
Growth plate injury, potentially affecting future bone growth.
Blood clots (deep vein thrombosis), though less common in children.
Anesthesia-related risks.
Development of arthritis in the joint later in life.

Recovery & hospital stay

Initial immobilization with a cast, splint, or sling to protect the reduction.
Pain management with prescribed medications.
Elevation and ice application to reduce swelling in the first few days.
Gradual, supervised physical therapy to restore strength, flexibility, and range of motion.
Follow-up X-rays to monitor healing and bone position.
Strict adherence to weight-bearing and activity restrictions as advised by the surgeon.
Long-term monitoring in growing children to ensure normal development of the joint.

Typical hospital stay: 1-3 days
Expected recovery time: 6 weeks to 3 months for basic healing; full return to sports may take 4-6 months

PATIENT REVIEW

Emily Iyer is a cautious but...

Emily Iyer is a cautious but active 6-year-old. While playing tag at her birthday party, she tripped and fell, catching herself with her right hand. She cried inconsolably, and her parents noticed her wrist looked crooked and swollen. In the ER, X-rays revealed a complete dislocation of her radial head (nursemaid's elbow, but a more severe form). Multiple attempts at closed reduction under sedation were unsuccessful. The pediatric orthopedic specialist, Dr. Kapoor, explained that the annular ligament was likely trapped, requiring a small open surgery to release it and properly seat the bone. Emily's parents were anxious about their young child needing surgery. The team used child-life specialists to explain the process with dolls. The surgery was brief and successful. Recovery involved a soft bandage and gentle movement to prevent stiffness. Emily was clingy and fearful of using her arm for the first few days, but with encouragement, she quickly resumed coloring and playing. Within weeks, she had full, pain-free function. The emotional journey for Emily and her parents moved from acute fear and trauma surrounding the injury and hospital visit to immense relief and a return to joyful, carefree play, with the event becoming a distant memory.
