We present an 82-year-old female patient with poor bone quality and a 20-year history of epilepsy. She had been using anticonvulsant drugs for almost 20 years. Following a convulsive epileptic attack, bilateral intertrochanteric femur fractures occurred (causing bilateral hip pain), which was diagnosed on the 12th day. An earlier pelvic anteroposterior roentgenogram would be helpful for early diagnosis. It should not be forgotten that bone fractures may be observed without trauma in epilepsy patients.en10.5505/tjtes.2012.76402info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEpileptic SeizureHip Fracture/BilateralSecondaryHipLate-diagnosed bilateral intertrochanteric femur fracture during an epileptic seizureArticle1819294Q4WOS:0003005217000202-s2.0-8485576526722290060Q2136643
