The calcaneus is the most commonly fractured tarsal bone. However, locked fracture-dislocation of the calcaneus is a rare condition because of the bone and ligament stability between the calcaneus, talus, and cuboid. We report the unique features of a case of bilateral fracture-dislocation of the calcaneus, including open fractures, bilateral fibular dislocation, and bilateral interposition of the flexor hallucis longus tendon at the fracture site. A literature review identified only 19 cases of locked fracture-dislocation, but none of these cases involved the combination of injuries observed in this case. Fracture of the calcaneus may be associated with a variety of injuries requiring proper diagnosis and treatment. Level of evidence V; Therapeutic Studies; Expert Opinion.

<p>The incidence of simultaneous bilateral shoulder joint dislocation is rare and is almost always posterior usually caused by violent muscle contraction as in patients with seizure disorders or who experience electric shock or undergo electroconvulsive therapy. simultaneous bilateral fracture-dislocation is even rarer, with a few cases reported in the literature. We report an unusual case with dislocation of the both shoulder joints in anterior direction after a seizure episode, With symmetrical unifocal 2-part extraarticular vertical fracture of proximal end segment of humerus (11A3) both sides. Although there have been a few reports of bilateral symmetrical fracture dislocations of the shoulder in the past, an injury pattern resembling our case has, to the best of our knowledge, not been described in the literature so far. Our report describes regarding the mechanism of injury in a case of a bilateral symmetrical anterior fracture dislocation following a seizure episode that treated with open reduction internal fixation using proximal humerus internal locking system (PHILOS). At final follow-up, the patient had healed fractures, painless near normal range of motion.</p>

Bilateral anterior dislocation of the shoulders associated with a bilateral fracture of the greater tuberosity is an extremel y rare lesion. We reported a case of bilateral dislocation of the shoulder following an electrocution received and operated on in t he Traumatology Orthopaedics I department of the Mohamed V Military Training Hospital in Rabat. The diagnosis was clinical as confirmed by radiological investigations; the patient received surgical treatment after failure of orthopaedic treatment, a bloody reduction in dislocation and osteosynthesis of the greater tuberosity of both shoulders. An evolution was marked by a satisfactory functional recovery of both shoulders. Even clinical examination can help to suspect dislocation, but x - rays are mandatory f or an accurate and early diagnosis. Surgery is recommended for unreduced dislocations or displaced fractures; orthopaedic treatment is indicated in non - displaced fractures subsequent functional rehabilitation allows results after surgical and non - surgical treatment.
