ABSTRACT
Introduction: traumatic hip dislocation is a rare entity, and exposed hip dislocation is even rarer. It usually occurs in young adults and is usually the result of severe, high-energy trauma, such as high-speed motor vehicle accidents or falls from a great height. Currently there are few cases reported in the literature.
Objective: to inform the medical community about a clinical case of very low incidence and our experience with its presentation and management.
Case presentation: here we present the case of a traumatic anterior exposed dislocation of the hip and concomitant traumatic dislocation of the contralateral hip with fracture of the acetabulum in a 54-year-old male patient managed by our service who required surgical management for damage control and definitive management of the injuries, with satisfactory evolution.
Conclusion: both dislocation and bone exposure are trauma emergencies that require early management to improve the prognosis and reduce morbidity in these patients, which in turn constitute an important therapeutic challenge as they occur concomitantly in the same joint and bilaterally.
