Pure anterior bilateral shoulder dislocations are rare clinical features, especially in traumatic forms. They are most often posterior, occurring during an epileptic seizure. Few cases are described in the literature, and the mechanism varies from case to case. We report a specific case of pure bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation in a 29-year-old judo player following an accident during his training and discuss the circumstances, mechanism, treatment, and prognosis.

Intoxication by orphenadrine is uncommon. The clinical features consist of both central and peripheral anticholinergic effects. Ingestion of 2 to 3 g orphenadrine in an adult has been associated with fatality. A 46-year-old female was brought to our emergency department 1.5 hours after ingesting 40 tablets of 100 mg orphenadrine. She became stuporous 3 hours post-ingestion and developed generalized convulsions 1 hour later. Fifty-five hours post-ingestion, she had recovered and was found to have anterior shoulder dislocation. In addition, severe rhabdomyolysis and persistent nausea were observed. All of the above-noted toxic effects resolved with conservative treatment. Although orphenadrine intoxication can cause convulsions and hemodynamic instability, there is no available antidote and treatment remains supportive.

To the best of our knowledge, the case presented here is among the rare cases of simultaneous shoulder dislocation and ipsilateral pallet humeral fracture, and we discuss its mechanism and best management. We report a case of a 26-year-old male patient with a history of dislocation of the right shoulder 2 months prior to trauma, managed conservatively with a good outcome. The patient fell from a height of 2 m, which caused concomitant shoulder dislocation and ipsilateral humeral fracture, prompting him to undergo surgery. First, the shoulder dislocation was reduced, and second, a V-shaped olecranon osteotomy was performed. The fracture was then fixed using two compressing plates followed by adequate rehabilitation, which led to a good outcome. This rare combination, if it occurs, requires urgent management to save the functional prognosis of the limb.

A 36-year-old woman presented with anterior shoulder dislocation as a result of breaststroke swimming training. She complained of pain and restriction of movement. A radiograph revealed the shoulder was dislocated, and the patient was treated successfully with closed reduction. The mechanism of injury seemed to be a relation between the initial pull phase of breaststroke technique and the weakest position of the shoulder in extension and external rotation. In our experience, if a patient has a history including a shoulder dislocation, this needs to be considered carefully before incorporating aquatic therapy into the rehabilitation program. Attention must also be given to the crucial timing of initiating swimming training.
