Dislocation of the Shoulder with Fracture of Surgical Neck
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Dislocation of the shoulder associating the fracture of surgical neck of humerus is uncommon and its treatment is generally difficult. Though a number of treatments have been proposed, including closed reduction, open reduction and internal fixation, resectional arthroplasty, prosthetic replacement, the end results were not always satisfactory.
Authors treated a case of this type of fracture-dislocation of the shoulder by open reduction and internal fixation using two Steinmann pins and a tension band. In this case, early active exercise of the shoulder was possible, because fixative devices could provide firm_ fixation of fractures of the humeral neck and greater tuberosity, which brought satisfactory end result at the end.
