Bilateral anterior hip dislocation presenting late with complete recovery with no complication is unusually rare. Case Report: A 39-year-old manual labor presented with bilateral anterior hip dislocation with nonspecific neurology following an industrial accident 20 hours post injury. Closed manual reduction required femoral block, spinal and general anaesthesia with three surgeons engaging a maneuver not previously described. Subsequently, skin traction was applied for two weeks and was discharged with non-weight bearing advice for another four weeks. Patient on his regular clinic follow up was subjected to various modalities of physiotherapy in view of his job nature requiring early return to work. Regular follow-up of three years did not reveal any evidence of avascular necrosis of the femoral heads and he obtained full function of both his hip joints. Conclusion: The mode of trasport which results in the delay in seeking treatment.
