Abstract
Open dislocation of the shoulder is a rare injury. We report the case of an open shoulder dislocation in a 15-year-old boy. After 15 months his pain was mild and function fair, but radiographs revealed severe d estruction of the humeral head though to be secondary to avascular nec rosis. Other reported cases of this injury are discussed.
