Bilateral Anterior Shoulder Dislocation

Öz

Bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation is a rare condition typically associated with high-energy trauma. In this report, we present a 73-year-old female patient who developed bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation following a low-energy fall. The patient experienced sudden bilateral shoulder pain and limited range of motion after falling forward while walking on a treadmill. Physical examination revealed bilateral “epaulet sign” and shoulders held in abduction and external rotation. Radiographs demonstrated bilateral subcoracoid anterior shoulder dislocation without accompanying fractures. Closed reduction was successfully performed under sedoanalgesia using the Kocher maneuver on both shoulders sequentially. Post-reduction imaging confirmed anatomical alignment, and a noticeable improvement in the range of motion was observed. Bilateral arm-to-body slings were applied and the patient was discharged with outpatient orthopedic follow-up. This case highlights that even low-energy trauma in elderly individuals may lead to significant musculoskeletal injuries. Bilateral shoulder dislocation, though uncommon, should be considered in elderly patients presenting with post-traumatic shoulder pain. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate management are essential to prevent complications and ensure optimal outcomes.
