The Men's alpine combined competition at the 1972 World Championships was held on 13 February 1972, but it was a paper race.{{Cite web|url=http://alpineskiworld.net/olymp72acm.pdf|title= 13.02.72. Sapporo Alpine Combined, men|publisher=alpineskiworld.net|accessdate=27 February 2021}}

Alpine Combined event was valid for the World Championships only. No Olympic medals were awarded for this event. Results from all three events of the 1972 Winter Olympics (downhill, slalom, and giant slalom) were translated into FIS points, and then added together to decide the outcome.
