Abstract
Simultaneous dislocation of both shoulders in opposite directions is extremely rare. This case report documents the third published case, which occurred in a 57 year-old male patient during a seizure due to medicinal self-poisoning. We will also review epidemiological, pathophysiological, clinical and paraclinical data surrounding this pathology and then explore the treatment options.
