Hoffa’s fracture is coronal oriented fracture of distal femur with the fracture line extending through the femoral condyles. Hoffa’s fracture is rarely associated with ipsilateral femur and tibia fractures. Proper clinical examination and radiographic evaluation is necessary to diagnose associated injuries around the knee joint with Hoffa’s fracture. Closed reduction of dislocated patella in emergency room and field triage should be avoided to prevent patellar tendon incarcenation, patellar tendon rupture and osteochondral damage. We report a rare case of Hoffa’s fracture with irreducible patellar dislocation and tibial intercondylar eminence fracture following road traffic accident.
