Inferior dislocation (luxatio erecta) is the most uncommon form of dislocation of the glenohumeral joint. The chance that a person endures the specific direction of forces to dislocate both shoulders simultaneously makes bilateral luxatio erecta even more uncommon. In this article, we report the case of a man who sustained bilateral luxatio erecta when he jumped from a falling scaffold and tried grabbing onto another structure.

The effect of arthroscopic Bankart repair and remplissage procedure on joint range of motion and functional outcomes in anterior shoulder instability.
Acta Orthop Traumatol Turc
December 2024
Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Yıldırım Beyazıt University, Bilkent City Hospital, Ankara, Türkiye.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the e!ect of arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) alone and ABR with an additional remplissage procedure on joint range of motion and functional results in patients with anterior shoulder instability.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients treated 1 year ago with either ABR alone or the ABR additional remplissage procedure. The Bankart lesion was determined by magnetic resonance imaging, and the amount of glenoid bone loss was determined by computed tomography.
Surgical management and outcomes of pure sacroiliac joint dislocations: A systematic review.

University of Turin, Centro Traumatologico Ortopedico (CTO), Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Turin, Italy.
Introduction: Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) dislocations, particularly pure SIJ dislocations without associated fractures, represent a rare and complex subset of pelvic ring injuries. Given the intricate pelvic anatomy and the need to achieve both stability and functional recovery, the optimal surgical management for these injuries remains a topic of debate. This systematic review aims to evaluate the various surgical techniques employed in treating this rare and challenging injury and assess associated clinical outcomes and complications.

Reverse Hill-Sachs lesions (RHSL) are common complications associated with posterior shoulder dislocations and represent a significant challenge for preserving joint stability and function. If untreated, these compression fractures of the anteromedial humeral head can compromise the integrity of the joint, predisposing patients to recurrent instability and arthropathy. While various treatment modalities exist, achieving an anatomic reduction of the defect while preserving the articular cartilage remains a desirable outcome, particularly in acute settings.

Trauma Case Rep

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Misawa City Hospital, 164-65 Horiguchi, Misawa, Misawa-shi, Aomori 033-0022, Japan.
Irreducible ankle fracture-dislocations due to posterior tibialis tendon (PTT) interposition in the distal tibiofibular and tibiotalar joints are rarely reported, and their diagnoses are often missed and delayed. In addition, previous reports lacked a longer clinical follow-up period, and objective and subjective evaluations of such cases have not been reported. A 22-year-old man sustained an open fracture-dislocation of the ankle joint associated with a distal third of the fibular shaft fracture and diastasis of the distal tibiofibular joint.

The study cohort includes 53 patients, who underwent surgery for acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocation Rockwood type 3, 4 and 5. Patient-reported outcome scores and clinical results, including Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH), the Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV), the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the Constant score (CS) results as well as loss of reduction rates on plain radiographs were compared.
