Bilateral luxatio erecta humeri.
BACKGROUND: Inferior dislocation of the glenohumeral joint or luxatio erecta humeri is a rare form of injury, accounting for only 0.5% of all shoulder dislocations. Bilateral cases are even less frequent, with only eight cases reported in the literature. METHOD AND RESULT: We report one case of bilateral inferior dislocation of the shoulder. The patient made a complete functional recovery within 2 years after treatment by closed reduction and rehabilitation. CONCLUSION: Based on this case and the pertinent literature, the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of this rare injury are discussed.
