Non-traumatic Bilateral Lower Limb Fractures in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Positive Individuals on Long-Term Antiretroviral Therapy: Two Case Reports and Literature Review.

Introduction: It has been noticed that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and anti-retro viral (ART) therapy, both individually lead to bone metabolic disorders, and hence, such patients have an increased propensity for fractures following trivial trauma.

Case Report: We present two cases, first a 52-year-old female with the right hip pain and inability to walk since 1 week following trivial trauma and associated dull pain in the left hip since 2 months ago. Radiographs revealed a right intertrochanteric fracture and a left unicortical fracture at level of lesser-trochanter.

We report a 7-year-old male who underwent an open needle biopsy.
