Treatment of fractures in patients with developmental dysplasia of hip is not clear. In patients without any pre-existing hip pathology, open or closed reduction and internal fixation is used to treat hip fractures. Total arthroplasty is used as a salvage procedure in hip fractures of young patients. Total arthroplasty serves perfect functional results in elderly patients with developmental dysplasia of hip. We presented two multi-trauma patients with developmental dysplasia of hip, and their hip fractures were treated with total arthroplasty. Painless and functional hip joints were obtained, and patients were mobilized early to prevent systemic complications. We think that total arthroplasty is the most convenient treatment method for hip fractures in patients with developmental dysplasia of hip.
