title: Reduction of acute posterior shoulder dislocation with the FARES method: A case report and a review of the literature.
abstract: Posterior shoulder dislocation is a rare entity in clinical practice. The FARES (Fast, Reliable, Safe) method is a well-validated, effective, and rapid approach to achieve reduction of anterior shoulder dislocation, but its use for posterior shoulder dislocation has not been reported previously. A 46-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with acute posterior shoulder dislocation due to a fall experienced while inebriated. We used the FARES method to achieve successful reduction of this case of acute posterior shoulder dislocation without general anesthesia.
