Abstract

The shoulder is the most commonly dislocated joint in the body . Ninety-five percent of shoulder dislocations are anterior. Bilateral simultaneous dislocation of the shoulder is a rare entity. They are mostly posterior following seizure. Bilateral anterior dislocation after trauma however, is still rarer, mainly as the mechanism necessary to produce such injury is unusual. Only 8 cases are reported in the literature, out of these only 2 are not associated with fractures . We report a rare case of bilateral traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation and discuss the mechanism of injury.
