Key result
Two rare cases of anterior shoulder dislocation secondary to generalized tonic-clonic seizures were presented, with one patient also sustaining a proximal humerus fracture.
Why the study?
Anterior shoulder dislocation and associated fractures secondary to generalized tonic-clonic seizures are rare, leading to varied management and a paucity of documented cases.

Seizure-related anterior shoulder dislocation merits clinical consideration in post-ictal shoulder pain; leaves open incidence and optimal management.
Case Report (n=2)
Anterior shoulder dislocation, with or without proximal humerus fracture, is a rare but possible complication of generalized tonic-clonic seizures.
Dao et al. (2024) conducted a case report in Anterior shoulder dislocation and fracture secondary to generalized tonic-clonic seizure (n=2). Generalized tonic-clonic seizure was evaluated on Anterior shoulder dislocation and fracture. Two rare cases of anterior shoulder dislocation secondary to generalized tonic-clonic seizures were presented, with one patient also sustaining a proximal humerus fracture.
