The authors have observed 3 acetabular fractures following epileptic fits in two patients. One case was bilateral with an anterior displacement on one side and a posterior one on the opposite side. The second case, which was unilateral, showed a central displacement and a transverse fracture of the acetabulum. Both cases were treated conservatively. The first had a relatively good result after 6 months, and the second died after 10 days.
