Locked posterior dislocation of the shoulder: A systematic review

Abstract

▪ Locked posterior dislocation of the shoulder is very rare. Seizures and trauma are the most common causes of this injury. ▪ There is no current benchmark treatment strategy for these rare cases. ▪ This study has shown that reconstruction of the shoulder joint in an anatomical way in acute and chronic cases up to 16 weeks provides good results. ▪ The purpose of this study is to evaluate the results of different treatment procedures with outcomes and to compare the results of the same procedures in acute and chronic cases.
