Abstract Bilateral elbow dislocation associated with bilateral distal forearm fractures is extremely rare, therefore its optimal treatment, complications, and outcomes remain unclear. We present an illustrative case with a 2‐year follow up of a patient who sustained a complex injury of the upper extremity and underwent combined surgical and conservative treatment.
