Proximal humerus fracture is common fracture 4-6% of all fractures (1), third most common non vertebral fracture in elderly >65 years (2), affecting female more than males in ratios of 2:1.Approximately half (51%) of these fractures are displaced, the majority of which involve the surgical neck (77%). (3) Surgical treatment (mainly internal fixation or humeral head replacement) is being increasingly used (4).Management of each fracture is dependent of patient factors, fracture pattern, and complexity.Case scenario:33 years old female not known to has any medical illness, presented to the emergency department with right shoulder pain and inability to move it after motor cycle accident. X-rayshowed proximal humerusfracture dislocation Upon Post-operative follow up patient developed sever inferior humeral head subluxation, With intact axillary nerve sensation and motor exam.Discussion:proximal humerus fracture is common, fracture pattern and type, with patient factors will guide your management.proximal humerus fracture dislocation is more difficult and challenging to surgeon in managing such fracture, with inferior hemeral head subluxation is common can reach to 42% in the radiographic incidence among proximal humerus fracture.
