Rate the results on the Constant scale after 1 and 3 months of cast removal. Results: After 1 month, the average Constant score was 72.18 ± 6.58 points. After 3 months, the average Constant score was 80.4 ± 5.98 points, shoulder function improved with good and very good rating of 94.6%. Conclusion: Conservative treatment of shoulder dislocation with rupture of the greater tuberosity wich little deviation brings high efficiency, low cost, and avoids complications and complications of surgery.
