Surgical management of bilateral concomitant posterior fracture-dislocation of the shoulder.

We present the case of a 71-year-old man who suffered a bilateral posterior fracture-dislocation of the shoulder after an idiopathic seizure. After immediate closed reduction, CT-scan images revealed bilateral anterior reverse Hill-Sachs lesion superior to 30 % of the articular humeral head. A surgical treatment was performed for reconstruction of segmental defects of the articular humeral heads followed by filling the defect using lesser tuberosity transposition. Early rehabilitation protocol was prescribed. After 14 months, the patient returned to normal daily activities with no complaint. Anatomical humeral head reconstruction and bone defect filling resulted in a good clinical outcome after posterior shoulder dislocation. It can be the treatment of choice for large humeral head defects, especially in younger patients with good bone stock.
