The dislocation of a shoulder joint in infancy is extremely rare and is usually the result of traumatic birth injuries, a sequel to brachial plexus injury, or a true congenital dislocation of shoulder. With more advanced obstetric care, the incidence of first two types has drastically decreased. We report a case of true congenital dislocation of shoulder, second of its kind, in a child who was delivered by cesarean section thereby negating any influence of trauma. We report the case because of its rarity, and review the available literature on this topic. We also discuss the management options when encountered with such a rare case scenario.
婴儿肩关节脱位极为罕见，通常是分娩时创伤性损伤、臂丛神经损伤后遗症或真正的先天性肩关节脱位所致。随着产科护理的不断进步，前两种类型的发病率已大幅下降。我们报告一例真正的先天性肩关节脱位病例，这是该类病例中的第二例，患儿通过剖宫产分娩，从而排除了创伤的任何影响。我们报告此病例是因其罕见性，并回顾了关于该主题的现有文献。我们还讨论了遇到这种罕见病例时的处理选择。
