ABSTRACT
The Galeazzi fracture dislocation, an uncommon forearm fracture in adults, becomes even rarer when occurring bilaterally, with limited studies documenting this condition. Here, we report the case of a 57-year-old female who presented to our emergency room with bilateral Galeazzi fracture dislocations. The patient underwent bilateral open reduction and internal fixation of the radial fractures, along with stabilization of the distal radioulnar joints. Follow-up monitoring over 16 months postoperatively showed positive outcomes without complications.
