Abstract
ORTIZ-DIAZ, LG and VILLALOBOS-CACHO, MD. Lower glenohumeral recurrent luxation ( luxatio erecta ) arthroscopic treatment, literature review and case report. Acta ortop. mex [online]. 2017, vol.31, n.2, pp.95-97. ISSN 2306-4102.
It is extremely important to take into account the complications of inferior gelnohumeral dislocation, which, although infrequent, may become incapacitating in the medium and long term, even in some cases reported, endangering the life of the same.
Material and methods:
We present the case of a young adult patient diagnosed with inferior rectal glenohumeral dislocation (luxatio erecta), with Bankart lesion and Hill Sachs lesion, treated by arthroscopy with repair of the Bankart lesion, plication of the lower capsular recess and remplissage.
Results:
We evaluated the functionality of the patient at 18 months with the UCLA scale, obtaining a final score of 30 points with good functional results.
Keywords : Recurrent luxatio erecta; surgical treatment; arthroscopy.
