A Neonatal Hip Septic Arthritis Caused by Klebsiella pneumonia at Hawassa University Comprehensive Specialized Hospital Neonatal Unit, Hawassa, Sidama, Ethiopia.

Hip septic arthritis is an orthopedic emergency, especially in neonates. It should be considered in newborns presenting with pseudoparalysis as the presentation is non-specific. Considering a less common microorganism with culture and sensitivity is very important, especially if the response to treatment is delayed. We endorse proper workup and timely intervention as hip arthritis has a poor prognosis when the management is delayed.
