Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Traumatology
  • Neuroscience

Background:

  • Inferior shoulder dislocation is an exceptionally rare injury, comprising only 0.5% of all shoulder dislocations.
  • Bilateral inferior shoulder dislocations are exceedingly uncommon, with only six such cases previously documented in medical literature.

Observation:

  • A single case of bilateral inferior shoulder dislocation was reported.
  • The injury presented with left axillary nerve paresis and bilateral median nerve sensory alterations.
  • No concurrent osteoarticular or vascular damage was observed.

Findings:

  • The patient experienced significant neurological complications, including nerve paresis and sensory deficits.
  • Despite the severity and rarity of the injury, no associated bone, joint, or vascular trauma was present.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the potential for complete functional recovery even in severe shoulder dislocations with neurological involvement.
  • It underscores the importance of comprehensive neurovascular assessment in managing complex shoulder injuries.
  • Further research into the long-term outcomes and optimal management strategies for bilateral inferior shoulder dislocations is warranted.
