DISLOCATIONS OF THE HIP. 431 The reduction of the posterior dislocations of the femurcan generally be effected by manipulation. The patientbeing anaesthetized and placed upon his back, the surgeongrasps the leg at the ankle and knee, flexes the leg uponthe thigh, and the thigh upon the pelvis in the position ofadduction; he then abducts the limb and rotates it out-ward, bringing it in a broad sweep across the abdomen,and by bringing it down to its natural position the headof the bone will slip into the acetabulum (Fig. 326).
