Merging dislocation of the femoral head and hip dislocation #10508

Closed lisannesw closed 4 months ago

lisannesw commented 5 months ago

HPO term Dislocation of the femoral head HP:0008826

Reason for deprecation Hip dislocation HP:0002827 is in the HPO as well, and is by defenition the same as dislocation of the femoral head (femoral head dislocation from the acetabular socket (PMID30275789)).

Suggested replacement or term to consider The suggestion will be to keep Hip dislocation as HPO term as this is the most commonly used term, and to add dislocation of the femoral head as a synonym.
