What’s the rest of the sentence?

Revised version:

DISLOCATED SHOULDER

If a prepubertal child presents with a dislocated shoulder, anterior dislocation is MUCH more common than posterior. Obtain an AXILLARY view X-ray.

PEARL: If a prepubertal child presents with what looks like dislocated shoulder, it’s probably NOT A DISLOCATION. It’s actually a FRACTURE.
