Introduction: Anterior shoulder dislocation is a common presentation in orthopedic emergency but a bilateral fracture dislocation is a rare entity. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature and their management is still not clear. We present a bilateral four part fracture dislocation with Bankart lesion on right side in a 48 years old.
Case Report: A 48-year-old male presented with bilateral proximal humerus fracture with anterior shoulder dislocation following a seizure. He was managed with bilateral PHILOS and Latarjet procedure on right side for a chronic bony Bankart lesion. Superficial infection on left side was managed with debridement. After 1 year period patient had a satisfactory outcome with DASH score of 19.2.
Conclusion: Bilateral four part proximal humerus fracture with shoulder dislocation is encountered rarely. Recurrent dislocations results in chronic glenoid bones loss which needs fixation along with fracture. Addressing both sides subsequently or in a single sitting is still debatable.

This prospective, observational cohort study compares the clinical and radiographic outcomes of the modified Weaver and Dunn (WD) technique with the newer, anatomical double-button plus tendon allograft technique (DB), and the suture anchor repair plus tendon allograft (SA). 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.

Background: Recurrent shoulder dislocations often lead to multiple encounters for reduction and eventual surgical stabilization, both of which involve exposure to opioids and potentially increase the risk of chronic opioid exposure. The purpose of our study was to characterize shoulder instability and compare pre- and post-reduction opioid usage in singular dislocators (SD) and recurrent dislocators (RD).
Methods: This retrospective study was performed at a single academic institution using a prospective database.

Background: Long term studies have shown the Latarjet procedure to be successful in preventing re-dislocation in primary and recurrent anterior inferior shoulder instability. It provides stability through the sling effect of the conjoint tendon and the bone block. It is unclear whether augmentation with capsular repair provides an added benefit or leads to restricted range of external rotation.

Purpose: Ligamentous elbow dislocations often affect young patients with high functional and athletic demands. After reduction and clinical examination of joint stability, further treatment options are, therefore, the subject of controversial debate. In order to be able to advise patients adequately, an assessment of the possible return-to-sport based on experience is necessary.
