Anterior glenohumeral instability is an increasingly common injury among young military servicemen. First-time dislocations occurring in combination with anterior labral tears and humeral avulsion of glenohumeral ligament lesions, although rare, significantly contribute to further shoulder dysfunction with recurrent instability and pain. Tears of the pectoralis major are also a type of injury more common in the military population, with operative management resulting in decreased strength. We present a unique case of a young, active duty male that sustains an anterior shoulder dislocation with a concomitant pectoralis major tendon rupture while bench press weight lifting in preparation for the Army Special Forces selection. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case presented in the literature describing management of a simultaneous anterior shoulder dislocation, humeral avulsion of glenohumeral ligament lesion, and pectoralis major tendon rupture treated with a single operation. After aggressive rehabilitation, the patient was able to successfully pass Special Forces selection and has near full function of the operative shoulder with remarkable satisfaction scores.
