Abstract not available. Introduction provided instead.
The literature includes a few case reports of seizure-induced bilateral femoral neck fractures.1-3 One such case was caused by water-soluble myelography, and treatment was open reduction and internal fixation.2 In our literature search, we found no recent case reports of seizure-induced bilateral femoral neck fractures after myelogram treated with bilateral total hip arthroplasty (THA). We now present such a case.
