ABSTRACT
A posterior shoulder dislocation with a fracture is rare. Most fractures are impression fractures of the humeral head or lesser tuberosity fractures. However, there are no reports of a complete rupture of the rotator cuff with a combined posterior glenohumeral dislocation. We report a unique case of a posterior shoulder dislocation with an avulsion fracture of the greater tuberosity and a complete rupture of infraspinatus, teres minor and subscapularis tendons, which were treated surgically.
