Popis: | A 61-year-old gentleman fell from a tree about two meters high and suffered from a right shoulder injury. The physical examination showed tenderness with marked decrease in range of movement over the right shoulder. X-ray of the right shoulder showed anterior dislocation. Closed reduction under sedation was performed. After reduction, ultrasound was done and showed a full-thickness supraspinatus tear. He was referred to the orthopaedic department urgently and an arthroscopic rotator cuff repair was done subsequently. |
