ABSTRACT

The hip joint is an stable joint and dislocation of this joint requires a significant and very high energy trauma. Bilateral hip dislocation are very rare and accounts for 0.01 to 0.02% of all cases of dislocations.[1] Because of the strong ligamentous and muscular stability and strong bony fit columns, these injuries may include dislocations with fracture of femoral head or acetabulum.[7] Injuries to the pelvis or to the other organ system and may lead to haemorrhage, bladder injury, and shock.[1,4] Bilateral hip dislocation is a rare injury and that to simultaneous contralatral (asymmetrical) hip dislocation is even rare injury and only limited number of case has been reportrd.[3] Early Complication of these injury includes femoral head fracture, acetabular fracture, shock, nerve injury. late complication includes hetrotrophic ossification, avascular necrosis of femoral head.[5]
