Dislocation of the shoulder with ipsilateral shaft fracture is an uncommon, but serious injury. I present one case report and the guidelines used for treatment. The method employed was Hackethal's pins through open reduction. The dislocation was reduced during surgery. The fracture and dislocation healed without any problems, and there was no damage to the radial nerve. After a recent follow-up, the patient was allowed to return to work without restrictions, and he has regained normal mobility.
The use of the GTS conservative short stem in patients over 70 years old has shown very good results and low complication rates, comparable to those for patients younger than 70 years.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
