Background: Among all joint dislocations, dislocations of the shoulder are the most common. Although posterior shoulder dislocation is infrequent, it is more common following seizures. Trauma, electrocution, and seizures can cause bilateral shoulder dislocation. Anterior shoulder dislocations can be accompaniment by greater tuberosity (GT) fractures, Bankart fractures, and other complications such as rotator cuff tears and neuro-vascular injuries.
Case Report: This article describes a 19-year-old boy who suffered from bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation due to an episode of generalized seizure, which happened after taking tramadol.
Conclusion: Any sign of shoulder pain in a patient who has experienced a generalized tonic-clonic seizure should warrant full radiographic evaluation to prevent the complications.
Background: Lipomas are benign adipocyte proliferations and the most common tumors in soft tissue, although the appearance of this tumor in the hand is rare. The most common peripheral compressive neuropathy is carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). CTS caused by a space-occupying lesion such as lipomas is rare and causes more complications than idiopathic CTS.
Case Report: This report was about a case of a 62-year-old woman with a giant painless mass on the first web of her right hand, with no systemic symptom and just a burning sensation in her fingers. After evaluations, CTS was diagnosed. Surgical dissection of the mass was performed, and the patient’s symptoms improved. The pathology report indicated that the mass was a lipoma.
Conclusion: It is essential to examine the presence of different masses when the patient has neurological symptoms without justifying the history.
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.
