Özet
Patients with cerebral palsy (CP) may develop complications such as infection or repeat dislocation following orthopedic surgery and rarely, mortal complications. A 7-year-old male CP patient underwent an iliac and femoral osteotomy due to a hip dislocation. Following the operation, the patient was discharged with a stable condition, but was admitted to the intensive care unit 3 days later after his clinical condition deteriorated. Detailed examination showed that the patient was experiencing hypovolemic shock due to gastrointestinal bleeding and died on the 3rd day of follow-up in the intensive care unit despite all revival efforts. In countries lacking hip follow-up programs, hip dislocations may be detected at a later period in CP patients. It should be noted that mortal complications may potentially develop in these patients after hip surgery. We presented this case report to put emphasis on these rare but serious complications.
