An unusual cause of bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation

Abstract

We present an unusual case of a traumatic bilateral simultaneous dislocation of shoulder in a healthy young male. Bilateral shoulder dislocation are rare and the reported cases, have been mostly associated with trauma or seizure. Only a few cases (about 4) have been reported in the literature so far and all of these are associated with trauma. The one we present is a bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation without traumatic history but associated with newly occurred seizures.
