| الوصف: | Shoulder dislocation is the most common feature in emergencies, while the anterior dislocation of the glenohumeral joint is the most frequent and requires reduction. Accompanied nerve injury is common with an incidence of 21%, while radial nerve palsy is very rare. We describe the case of a 56-year-old man who presented with an anterior dislocation of the left shoulder due to a fall on an outstretched hand with wrist drop 8 hours after injury. Neurological examination revealed loss of sensation along the radial border of the forearm. Closed reduction with Kocher procedure was performed. Magnetic resonance image demonstrated a rotator cuff tear, and 3 weeks after the injury electromyography showed complete radial nerve palsy. A physiotherapy program was applied to the wrist and fingers with the goal of maintaining a full passive range of motion in all joints affected while shoulder rehabilitation started 6 weeks after his fall. Isolated radial nerve palsy associated with an anterior dislocation of the shoulder is very rare but not impossible to occur. Correct diagnosis of the nerve injury associated with the anterior dislocation is very important because it has serious implications on the management and activity morbidity. |
