Atypical subtrochanteric femoral fractures are a common problem associated with pycnodysostosis. Pycnodysostosis is a rare sclerotic bone disease caused by a mutation in the cathepsin K gene. Fracture healing in pycnodysostosis cases is typically inferior. Here, we report a case of bilateral atypical subtrochanteric femoral fractures in one patient with pycnodysostosis. The right subtrochanteric fracture was treated with open reduction and internal fixation (open plating), and united through primary bone healing, while the left one wa
