Area of Science:

Orthopedic Surgery
Trauma Management
Vascular Surgery

Background:

Bilateral knee dislocation is a rare and severe knee joint injury.
It presents an emergency due to potential life- and limb-threatening concomitant injuries.

Observation:

A 26-year-old male sustained bilateral knee dislocation from a high-velocity motor vehicle accident.
The patient experienced popliteal artery disruption and peroneal nerve damage, alongside abdominal and skeletal injuries.

Findings:

A multidisciplinary team managed the patient's complex injuries.
A staged surgical approach for ligament reconstruction was performed without complications.

Implications:

This case demonstrates the successful management of a rare, complex bilateral knee dislocation.
Prompt and comprehensive treatment allowed the patient to return to his pre-injury activity level.
