[Simultaneous double interphalangeal dislocation on a single finger].

The authors report a rare case of the simultaneous double interphalangeal dislocation in the little finger of the left hand. A 35-year-old man, playing football as a goalkeeper, was injured when another player trod on his little finger. The dislocation was reduced by traction without anesthesia and the finger was immobilized on a splint. Although the patient removed the splint only a week later and failed to come for a check-up, at 1 year, his little finger showed no deformity and regained a full range of painless, active motion.

[Dislocation of the humerus--diagnosis and the Arlt method of reduction].

Authors present 248 shoulder dislocations included recurrent dislocations in a 3-year period. All of dislocations were of anterior type except 3 posterior dislocations and 1 inferior or luxatio erecta. They describe and recommend method of reduction without local or general anesthesia according to Arlt, which was used in 234 cases with effectivity of 96.6%. Posterior dislocation can have a very subtle signs and is generally initially missed in more than 50% cases. Two X-ray views in posterior dislocation are necessary to confirm diagnosis. Authors used in addition to anteroposterior transthoracic view with no posterior dislocation missed.
