[Bilateral shoulder dislocation fractures, femoral neck and vertebral fractures: a remarkable combination of injuries during an epileptic seizure].

Fracture complications of convulsions are reported occasionally, e.g.: mono- or bilateral posterior shoulder luxations and luxation fractures, central dislocations of the hip as well as fractures of the femoral neck or compression fractures of vertebrae. A case is reported where the patient sustained four such lesions simultaneously. The epileptic seizure occurred following the sudden interruption of a neurotropic therapy with Carbamazepin (Tegretal). A general osteodystrophy was not found. The simultaneous presence of four such lesions following one convulsion has never before been reported and appears to be very uncommon. The frequency and problems of post-epileptic fractures are discussed and the operative treatment of the lesions briefly described.

[Clinical and radiologic long-term follow-up of Eden-Lang operation in habitual anterior shoulder dislocation].

The incidence of degenerative arthritis after Eden-Lange procedure is judged differently in literature, recently high rates of degenerative arthritis have been reported. 37 patients and the same number of shoulder joints have been evaluated clinically and radiologically after an average follow-up time of 14.9 years. Overall results can be considered as good. Recurrence of dislocation occurred only in one case. Most frequently we observed a limitation of external rotation and overhead performance in sports. The frequency of degenerative arthritis was 17%, clearly less than mentioned elsewhere. The Eden-Lange procedure still can be recommended as a treatment for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation except for patients with high expectations in physical overhead activities.

Recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation caused by a midsubstance complete capsular tear.

BACKGROUND: A midsubstance complete capsular tear is one of the well-known causes of anterior glenohumeral instability. However, its prevalence and clinical picture have not been well elucidated. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of isolated complete capsular tears and to assess the clinical features as well as the results of surgical treatment of recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability caused by such tears. METHODS: Three hundred and three shoulders underwent surgery to treat recurrent anterior glenohumeral instability at our institution during a five-year period. Twelve (4.0%) of these shoulders had an isolated complete capsular tear as the main pathological condition. Those twelve patients (nine male and three female) were the subjects of the present study. The average age at the time of the operation was twenty-five years. Patient age; the cause of the initial dislocation; the position of the arm at the initial dislocation; and the findings of the preoperative physical examination, of computed tomographic arthrography, and at surgery were assessed. Eleven patients underwent arthroscopic capsular repair, and one was treated with an open capsular repair. RESULTS: The twelve patients either did not have a Hill-Sachs lesion or had a chondral indentation-type of Hill-Sachs lesion. When assessed with arthrography, the Hill-Sachs lesions were small compared with those in shoulders with an isolated Bankart lesion and, interestingly, they were quite similar in size to those seen with humeral avulsion of the inferior glenohumeral ligament. The average Rowe score for the twelve patients improved from 30.4 points preoperatively to 90.4 points at an average of thirty-one months postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of isolated complete capsular tears causing recurrent glenohumeral instability was 4.0% (twelve of 303). These tears were associated with either a small or no Hill-Sachs lesion. We believe that a complete capsular tear should be recognized as one of the essential lesions causing recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. Arthroscopic examination and repair can provide effective treatment.
