Core Tip	Neglected femoral neck fracture in the pediatric population might be challenging to treat; moreover, it is more challenging in neglected cases. In the current report, we presented a case of bilateral neglected femoral neck fracture in a pediatric patient suffering from end-stage renal disease. The management aim was to achieve fracture union in an acceptable anatomical position and overcome the obstacle of poor bone quality. These goals were achieved by performing staged bilateral sliding subtrochanteric valgus osteotomies, and by the last follow up at 18 months, fracture union was achieved with acceptable functional outcomes. Performing a sliding subtrochanteric valgus osteotomy is appropriate for correcting the fracture biomechanics and achieving early stability and fracture union.
