We describe etiology, diagnostics, treatments and outcome and give a historic review and with a current approach of this pathology. We reviewed 55 cases (110 shoulders), mostly men (49/55), with a mean age of 49.2 years, mean follow up 21.9 months, mean delay until diagnose of 12.7 days (0-112 days), with a seizure as the cause in 80.0% . Other causes are electrocution, trauma or other. If the mechanism is not clear an epileptic insult should be considered the cause until proven otherwise. Closed reduction or mini open reduction is common in the more dated literature, but gives a overall good outcome. Arthroplasty is the prefered method in the more recent literature. Autografts from the shoulder treated with arthroplasty can be used to reconstruct the articular surface of the contralateral shoulder. High index of suspicion is important and a CT is most important diagnostic tool.In the setting of fracture care, orthopedic surgeons are primarily focused on treating the fracture itself, but more and more attention is being paid to prevention of such fractures and identifying risk factors associated with worse postoperative prognoses. In our study we collected postoperative vitamin D, calcium and albumin bloodserum levels from 163 patients who were admitted with a femur fracture and from 233 patients who were admitted for an elective hip arthroplasty during the period of 365 days. Results 84.21% of the fracture population had a vitamin D deficiency ( less then 20 ng/mL) as well as 77.30% of the elective hip arthroplasty population. There were no significant seasonal differences in the fracture population. 80.27% of the fracture population had an albumin deficiency ( less then 29 g/L) compared to 38.75% of the reference population. There were no significant statistical differences in vitamin D and albumin bloodser
