Bilateral Anterior Shoulder Dislocations with Greater Tuberosity Fractures Study Design: A Case Report

Our patient had an uncommon presentation of bilateral shoulder fracture-dislocations secondary to atypical etiology. Delayed diagnosis and treatment of a shoulder dislocation may have devastating consequences, especially in the pediatric population. This includes the increased risk of avascular necrosis if not managed appropriately. In this case, we highlight the significance of being vigilant about the potential complications of bilateral shoulder dislocations while patients are admitted and in critical status. This unusual presentation in a pediatric male with status epilepticus illustrates the necessity for prompt recognition and intervention. Healthcare professionals should remain cognizant of this potential presentation to mitigate potential long-term consequences of failed recognition of this pathology.
