Neglected acetabular fractures present with varied degrees of soft tissue and bone loss and distorted anatomy resulting in high hip centres. The basic principles of achieving stability and restoring motion are to augment the acetabular bone loss, prevent protrusio in the long term and use a prosthesis that prevents dislocation. We report a case of a 22 year old neglected acetabular fracture managed successfully with a femoral head autograft, anti protrusio cage and dual mobility total hip arthroplasty.
