Traumatic Simultaneous Bilateral Knee Dislocation: A Case Report

Bilateral knee dislocation is an extremely rare and devastating injury to the knee joint. This injury is a true emergency as concomitant injuries may threaten life and limb. Here, we report the case of a 26-year-old male patient who sustained bilateral knee dislocation due to a high-velocity motor vehicle accident. In this case, the patient suffered a feared complication associated with knee dislocation, popliteal artery disruption with peroneal nerve damage. Abdominal and skeletal injuries were also discovered and treated appropriately by a multidisciplinary team. A staged surgical approach to ligament reconstruction was used without any postoperative complication. Postoperatively, the patient successfully returned to his preoperative activity level.
