Introduction Combined proximal humerus fracture dislocation and glenoid fracture is a rare combination of injuries which presents technical operative challenges. There is little evidence to guide surgical management. Case Report We report a case of a proximal humerus fracture with anterior dislocation and glenoid fracture treated in the same sitting with open reduction and internal fixation with angular stability locking plate and cannulated screw. The surgical technique involved standard deltopectoral approach with coracoid osteotomy. Conclusion By addressing both fractures operatively at the same time, we reported a satisfactory clinical and functional outcome with bony union of the fracture sites without instability at end of 1 year. Coracoid osteotomy may open an alternative pathway to treat complex proximal humerus injuries with ipsilateral glenoid fracture.

Anterior Shoulder Dislocation

Introduction: Anterior shoulder dislocation is a common presentation in orthopedic emergency but a bilateral fracture dislocation is a rare entity. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature and their management is still not clear. We present a bilateral four part fracture dislocation with Bankart lesion on right side in a 48 years old. Case Report: A 48-year-old male presented with bilateral proximal humerus fracture with anterior shoulder dislocation following a seizure. He was managed with bilateral PHILOS and Latarjet procedure on right side for a chronic bony Bankart lesion. Superficial infection on left side was managed with debridement. After 1 year period patient had a satisfactory outcome with DASH score of 19.2. Conclusion: Bilateral four part proximal humerus fracture with shoulder dislocation is encountered rarely. Recurrent dislocations results in chronic glenoid bones loss which needs fixation along with fracture. Addressing both sides subsequently or in a single sitting is still debatable. Keywords: Bilateral humerus fracture, anterior dislocation, Bankart repair.

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.

Traumatic shoulder dislocation with proximal humerus fracture is a rare entity among children and treatment is always challenging. We present the case of a child with anterior dislocation of the shoulder associated with complete displaced proximal humerus metaphysis fracture. The fracture was treated by closed reduction using an innovative joystick technique and then fixation by two intramedullary K-wires. The dislocation was easily reduced after the fixation of the fracture. This method of treatment enables us to achieve excellent radiological and clinical results in a short time.
