“…We have not found a similar case in the literature. The few rare cases of bipolar dislocation of the thoracic limb reported in the literature relate to the forearm (elbow and wrist) [ 2 ]. These lesions are due to violent trauma and require emergency management, by reducing and restraining lesions [ 1 , 2 , 4 , 5 ].…”

“…The few rare cases of bipolar dislocation of the thoracic limb reported in the literature relate to the forearm (elbow and wrist) [ 2 ]. These lesions are due to violent trauma and require emergency management, by reducing and restraining lesions [ 1 , 2 , 4 , 5 ]. Open reintegration of the fracture of the coronoid process followed by additional compression by plaster splint, would have improved anatomical and above all functional results.…”

We report an exceptional clinical case of an ipsilateral dislocation fracture of the shoulder and right elbow, realizing a “swinging arm”. Following a violent road accident, patient S.I, a 43-year-old left-handed sports educator, presented with an antero-medial shoulder dislocation fracture and a posterolateral ipsilateral elbow fracture-dislocation. The reduction in urgency, followed by the orthopedic compression by Mayo Clinic and functional rehabilitation, allowed obtaining a good result after seven months. The ipsilateral bipolar dislocation of the shoulder and elbow is an exceptional lesional entity. Its adequate care in emergency makes it possible to obtain good anatomical and functional results.
