Anterior Shoulder Dislocation and Ipsilateral Humeral Shaft Fracture
Authors
Abstract:
Simultaneous dislocation of shoulder and humeral shaft fracture is a rare injury, and there is no clear protocol for its treatment. Herein we present a case of a 15-year-old boy, who suffered from a job-related accident and sustained fracture of humeral shaft associated with ipsilateral anterior shoulder dislocation and fracture of greater tuberosity 15 years ago. He received closed reduction of both injuries and coaptation plaster splint for four weeks, followed by Sarmiento splint at that time. Fifteen years after the injury, he has no problem related to the previous injury, and does not experience any episode of shoulder instability.

Isolated posterior dislocation of the shoulder with ipsilateral humeral shaft fracture is a rare combination. Three cases of such co-existence have been reported so far. We report a fourth case and review the literature. Our aim is to highlight the importance of this rare co-existence. A high index of suspicion is necessary to diagnose posterior dislocation of the shoulder as most concentration...
