N2  - Fractures of the femoral head are rare. They usually occur in association with a posterior hip dislocation secondary to a high-energy trauma (motor vehicle accident). We report a case of Pipkin II fracture associated with an irreducible hip subluxation. Clinical signs are poor unlike in posterior hip subluxation. CT scan is important to evaluate the traumatism. The Hardinge approach is relevant in this context of irreducible hip subluxation. The clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic particularities of this lesion type are discussed.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
