Hypermobile shoulder socket, Ht>90%

[Guest guest]

Any thoughts on an 11 yo who is large for age Ht>90%ile (BMI is normal).

No clinical evidence of Marfan's.

Main question is his hypermobile shoulder joints.

He can move both shoulers around such that it appears they are basically coming out the joint and back in.

Not hyper-extendible elsewhere.

Is this something that should be worked up?

Thanks for your thoughts.
