Abstract

Simultaneous ipsilateral hip and knee dislocations can be a devastating injury rendering the limb useless if not treated for time. Long term results also vary because these two types of injuries are associated with complications like avascular necrosis of the femoral head, knee instability, and stiffness at both the joints. Early diagnosis and prompt reduction is must to prevent the complications. Here we report a case with such an injury with description regarding its management difficulties. The prompt reduction of dislocations was carried out to achieve good results. Our case report add to this existing literature.
