Popis: As shoulder joint stability is mainly provided by muscles and connective tissue, it has a wide range of movement and is the joint where dislocation is most often seen due to frequent exposure to trauma. Inferior shoulder dislocation is seen rarely and has been determined in literature as 0.5% of all shoulder dislocations. In this study, two cases of inferior shoulder dislocation are discussed in the light of the information in literature.
