Title Of Article :
Bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation: A case report and a review of the literature
Abstract :
Dislocation is more often encountered due to multilateral mobility of the shoulder joint, its anatomic characteristics, and its being more exposed to traumas. Shoulder dislocations are often anterior and unilateral; though rare, bilateral shoulder dislocations are also encountered. Such dislocations are mostly posterior. A simultaneous bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation is extremely rare. In the current study, we present the case of a 55-year-old female patient, with a simultaneous bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation, who was admitted in our emergency polyclinic due to complaints of pain on both shoulders and limited mobility following a fall.
