An indirect reduction through the bicipital groove and allogenic iliac tricortical bone graft was performed as a treatment for a large Hill– Sachs lesion with a rotator cuff tear in an acute traumatic shoulder joint dislocation in an elderly patient. Six months after surgery, the rotator cuff healing and bone union were confirmed. The patient also showed satisfactory clinical results with 95 points of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) shoulder score and active range of motion with 155° flexion, 120° abduction, and 70° external rotation and 30º internal rotation at 90º abduction. The surgical method can be considered for a large Hill–Sachs lesion with rotator cuff tear in an acute traumatic shoulder joint dislocation in elderly patients.

Myocardial infarction is diagnosed when blood levels of biomarkers are increased in the clinical setting of acute myocardial ischemia. Among the biomarkers, troponin I is the preferred biomarker indicative of myocardial necrosis. It is tissue specific for the heart. Myocardial infarction is rarely reported following seizure. We report a case of elevated troponin I in a patient after an episode of generalized tonic-clonic seizure. The diagnosis was type 2 myocardial infarction.

Cardiogenic unilateral pulmonary edema (UPE) is a rare clinical entity that is often misdiagnosed at first. Most cases of cardiogenic UPE occur in the right upper lobe and are caused by severe mitral regurgitation (MR). We present an unusual case of right-sided UPE in a patient with cardiogenic shock due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) without severe MR. The patient was successfully treated by percutaneous coronary intervention and medical therapy for heart failure. Follow-up chest Radiography showed complete resolution of the UPE. This case reminds us that AMI can present as UPE even in patients without severe MR or any preexisting pulmonary disease affecting the vasculature or parenchyma of the lung.
