| Summary: | Though the incidence of concomitant ipsilateral intracapsular and extracapsular fracture neck of femur is still a rare presentation in day to day fracture hip admissions. Cases of simultaneous ipsilateral intra- and extra-capsular neck of femur fractures are forestalled with problems relating to diagnosing this injury as well as debate regarding optimal methods of fixation versus arthroplasty. We did a literature review to assess frequency of such fracture incidence, highlight methods of treatment applied, current practice for management as well as case report presentation. Keywords: Concomitant/simultaneous intracapsular/extracapsular fractures, Fracture fixation, Hip fractures/complications, Hip fractures/radiography, Ipsilateral hip fractures/surgery, Hip joint/surgery, Hip fracture neck of femur fracture segmental fracture hemiarthroplasty dynamic hip fixation
