Area of Science:
- Orthopedic Surgery
- Vascular Surgery
- Radiology
Background:
- Anterior shoulder dislocations are common, but chronic irreducible cases are rare and challenging.
- Rotator cuff pathology, soft tissue interposition, and bony fragments contribute to irreducibility.
- Vascular complications, though infrequent, are critical considerations in chronic dislocations.
