title: [Spontaneous shoulder dislocation by posterior primary humeral notch: two case reports].
abstract: We report two cases of spontaneous anterior dislocation of the shoulder. Although the underlying etiology was different, both patients presented a posterior bone defect as the causal mechanism. Shoulder dislocation is explained by constitutional factors, which should include posterior bone defect.
