case_images: The left hip was reduced (Figures 2A-B) and the subject was instructed to be non-weight-bearing on the left lower extremity with bilateral axillary crutches for two weeks, followed by adding 25% weightbearing each week thereafter to weight bearing as tolerated while maintaining standard posterior hip precautions (no hip flexion greater than 90 , no hip adduction, no hip internal rotation) for a total of six weeks.
case_images: Coronal T1 - eight months post-injury with subchondral marrow edema (large bracket), femoral head cartilage defect (small bracket), and inflammation throughout the joint capsule (arrows).

case_images: There was additional full thickness cartilage delamination with chondral flap posterior and inferior to the osteochondral lesion of 6x6 mm along with a partial thickness, non-detached tear of the anterior labrum, which extended superiorly to the anterosuperior labrum (Figures 3A-B).
