Presentation
The group of patients presented in this study varies in the etiology of the clinical condition and could have an effect in the results, but it is a not common deformity to surgically treat. [healio.com]
Five pediatric patients who presented with hip contractures are described. There were 3 boys and 2 girls ranging in age from 7 to 14. None had morning stiffness and one complained of no pain at all. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A stooped posture and flexed knees are a common presentation. Bradykinesia causes small steps which are shuffling in presentation. [physio-pedia.com]
Grade two pressure sores were present. The knee joint was flail with a full passive range of motion. The patient underwent bilateral proximal femoral resection [Figure 1] B (a). [ijoonline.com]
If a contracture is present the leg will raise off of the table. This is often measured if present. [pthaven.com]

It causes pain, stiffness, and swelling. Over time, the joint can become severely damaged. [icdlist.com]
The symptoms associated with hip arthritis can be varied, the most common of which is groin pain. Groin pain is that pain that occurs deep in the joint that most people described as where the hip meets the body. [lifebridgehealth.org]

Pain in the muscle is due to tightness, sciatic type pain is indicative of piriformis syndrome [orthofracs.com]
- Falling
Patients that were in serious car or falling accidents that resulted in hip damage may need a hip support brace. The hips are one of the bodies main hinge points, allowing you to twist and control leg movement. [mmarmedical.com]

Hug the non-targeted knee into the chest and let the targeted leg fall toward the floor. This will stretch and lengthen the targeted iliopsoas. [woman.thenest.com]
However, playing sports, running, overuse, or falling can sometimes lead to hip injuries such as Strains Bursitis Dislocations Fractures Certain diseases also lead to hip injuries or problems. Osteoarthritis can cause pain and limited motion. [icdlist.com]
If the abductor muscles (gluteus medius) are not functioning (become weak and atrophy, or have a nerve lesion (L5)) then the pelvis will fall away on the opposite side. [rheuminfo.com]
- Fatigue
If a prosthesis can be fitted, standing with a normally straight spine becomes impossible and even more fatiguing because the hip muscles also attach to the spine. [amputee-coalition.org]
With compromise of the hip extensors and quadriceps, gravity and fatigue force the child into a progressive crouch gait pattern. [3, 4, 5, 6] Knee pain is a frequent complaint, which may reflect fatigue of the quadriceps, tension failure of the patellar [emedicine.medscape.com]
Musculoskeletal
- Flexion Contracture
In addition, some postural and gait abnormalities caused by hip flexion contracture were observed in many patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Keywords: Flexion contracture, paraplegia, proximal femoral resection MeSH terms: Hip contracture, paraplegia, spinal cord diseases How to cite this article: Bhattacharyya S. Paraplegic flexion contracture of hip joints: An unsolvable problem. [ijoonline.com]
Hip flexion contractures can be compensated during gait through increased anterior pelvic tilting, decreased contralateral step length, and increased knee flexion. [journals.lww.com]
Hip flexion contracture conditions Five hip flexion contracture conditions were set: zero contracture and flexions of 0°, 10°, 20°, and 30°. [omicsonline.org]
Hip flexion for an extended period of time can cause the hip flexor muscle to shorten. Sitting for long periods of time may lead to a condition called hip flexion contracture. [woman.thenest.com]
- Fracture
However, playing sports, running, overuse, or falling can sometimes lead to hip injuries such as Strains Bursitis Dislocations Fractures Certain diseases also lead to hip injuries or problems. Osteoarthritis can cause pain and limited motion. [icdlist.com]

It is a common complication following elbow surgery, fractures, dislocations, and burns. The normal functional range of motion for an elbow is 30-145 degrees. [ypo.education]
Fractures: § (1) nonunion of hip fracture, 12 percent; § (2) fracture requiring femoral endoprosthesis, six percent; § (3) hip pinning for fracture, three percent; § (4) fracture or dislocation involving the femur not otherwise ratable under subpart 2 [revisor.mn.gov]
Seventy-eight patients (mean age of 68.1 +/- 10.5 years) with hemiplegia, femoral neck fractures, osteoarthritis of the hip and other conditions causing hip flexion contractures were studied. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Lordosis
Among them, some develop increased lumbar lordosis. It is postulated that HFC and increased lumbar lordosis may be correlated. Thirty-eight patients, with a mean age of 12.7 years, were evaluated. [sogacot.org]
Before the surgical indication, there is the need to check if the excessive lumbar lordosis is still flexible otherwise approaching the hip only could not be as effective. [healio.com]
Place your hand under the patient's spine to identify lumbar lordosis. Have the patient flex the knee and hip on the unaffected side by pulling the knee to the chest and holding it there. This will cause the lumbar lordosis to straighten out. [orthopaedicsone.com]
Holding the knee to the chest flattens out the lumbar lordosis and stabilizes the pelvis. [en.wikipedia.org]
As a result, it was revealed that whether lack of mobility caused by hip flexion contracture was compensated for by pelvic tilt an an increase of lumbar lordosis or not was affected by four factors. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Sometimes the pain can be located on the outside of the hip and even in the back of the hip. Patients will state that they have a tight feeling within their hip joint. They may describe night pain or activities of daily living. [lifebridgehealth.org]
