“…Description of CT scans in the literature is even rarer and is limited to only 3 case reports [8][9][10]. Our observations regarding rotator cuff, joint cartilage, labral, and ligamental injuries are consistent with previous reports [5,11,13,15]; however, we didn't observe any biceps tendon injury or posterior labral tearing.…”

“…Thus far, only 2 LEH MR arthrograms, 3 LEH MRIs (5 in total) and 3 LEH CT scans have been described in the literature [5,[8][9][10][11]; to our knowledge, no CT arthrogram findings of LEH has been reported. This study adds 10 patients diagnosed with LEH, with 8 CT scans ( 2 out of 8 are CT arthrograms) and 4 MRIs (2 out of 4 are MR arthrograms), to the literature.…”

“…In 2013 Imerci et al demonstrated the CT scan of a patient with a fracture of the anterior wall of the glenoid[8]. The same year Ellanti et al published a 3D reconstruction of CT scan of a case of bilateral LEH with bilateral avulsion of greater tuberosity[10].…”

Introduction: Inferior dislocation of the shoulder is a rare injury. Some specific complications may occur immediately or during follow-up. We present a rare case of erecta dislocation with a neurological injury. Case presentation: We report a 23-year-old female admitted for erecta dislocation on her right shoulder after sport accident complicated with a fracture of the greater tuberosity and axillary nerve palsy. A closed reduction had been indicated with a reduction of both fracture and dislocation. Functional treatment had been adopted. The neurapraxia had resolved spontaneously. At last outcome, the patient is satisfactory with a full range of motion on her right shoulder. Discussion: Inferior shoulder dislocation leads, usually to tears on soft tissue of the shoulder especially capsular, labral and inferior glenohumeral ligament. Immediate complications are serious such as neurological palsy and vascular problems. Indications depend on reducibility and associated injuries. Conclusion: Neurological complication especially neurapraxia is a serious injury but did not require open reduction and surgical exploration explained by the traction at the point where the axillary nerve passes through the quadrangular space.

“…Inferior shoulder dislocation (luxatio erecta) is a rare injury, and it is often accompanied with neurovascular injuries (3). Fractures of the proximal humerus together with shoulder dislocation are important injuries because of both neurovascular injury risk and long-term high rates of complications (4).…”

Introduction: Traumatic fracture-dislocations of the shoulder and hip are serious injuries caused by high-energy trauma and can lead to long-term morbidity. Case Report: In this case report, we present a case of rare orthopedic emergency due to right hip dislocation, acetabular fracture, pertrochanteric femoral fracture, left inferior shoulder dislocation, and left proximal humerus fracture in a 72-year-old male patient suffering from a traffic accident that occurred while the patient was sitting inside the car. Conclusion: The occurrence of both inferior shoulder dislocation with fracture (luxatio erecta) and fracture-dislocation of the hip are extremely rare and have not been described previously in a single patient. Rates of complications and additional injuries are high in both situations.Keywords: Dislocation, fracture, shoulder, hip Received: 12.02.2015 Accepted: 01.07.2015 ÖZET Giriş: Travmatik omuz ve kalça kırıklı çıkıkları yüksek enerjili travmalar sonucu oluşan ve uzun süreli morbiditeye yol açabilen ciddi yaralanmalardır. Olgu Sunumu: Bu olgu sunumunda, 72 yaşındaki erkek hastada, araç içi trafik kazası sonucu oluşan, sağ kalça çıkığı, asetabulum kırığı, pertrokanterik femur kırığı, sol inferior omuz çıkığı ve sol proksimal humerus kırığının birlikte olduğu nadir bir ortopedik acil olguyu sunduk. Sonuç: Oldukça nadir görülen kırık ile birlikte inferior omuz çıkığı (luxatio erecta) ve kalçanın kırıklı çıkığı daha önce aynı hastada tariflenmemiştir. Her iki durumunda da komplikasyon ve ek yaralanma oranları yüksektir.
