Abstract Although hip injuries do not account a large amount of the Sports Physician s workload they can result in significant morbidity. We present a case where an acetabular fracture was sustained in a relatively young female while playing squash without any history of fall or injury but was treated successfully non-operatively. Such patients who present with acute hip pain must not be dismissed as simply having a soft tissue injury. Introduction The number of hip joint injuries that present to the Sports Physician is relatively small in comparison to other joints such as the knee ankle and shoulder but their morbidity can be significant especially if the correct diagnosis is not made 1 . We describe a squash player who presented with acute hip pain during a game without any history of fall or injury which turned out to be an isolated fracture of the acetabulum. Case presentation A 47-year-old pre menopausal female presented to our Emergency Department with acute left hip pain .
