Background:  The glenohumeral joint becomes dislocated more than any other major joint because it maintains a wide range of motion and its stability is inherently weak. The most common complication following acute initial shoulder dislocation is recurrent dislocation or chronic instability. Imbalance of strength and range of motion in individuals with anterior dislocation can be a contributing ...

Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocation is a common injury often affecting young adults. Its sequalae range from an asymptomatic shoulder to one that is painful with significant loss of strength in the affected upper limb. The management of ACJ dislocation has revolved around expert neglect for asymptomatic low-grade dislocation to complex surgical reconstruction. The authors describe their e...
