Ultrasound Screening for Posterior Shoulder Dislocation in Infants

Ultrasound Screening for Posterior Shoulder Dislocation in Infants

Early detection of posterior shoulder dislocation in infants with brachial plexus birth palsy (BPBP) is essential, but it may be difficult to accomplish with physical examination alone. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of shoulder dislocation in patients with BPBP using ultrasound and to identify which physical examination measurements correlated most with dislocation in these patients.
