Muscles of the Shoulder01:23

Muscles of the Shoulder

The muscles surrounding the shoulder girdle, including the clavicle and scapula, primarily stabilize the scapula. This stable base allows other muscles to move the humerus effectively. Scapular movements often mirror those of the humerus and extend its range of motion. For instance, raising the arm above the head would not be feasible without simultaneous upward rotation of the scapula.
Anterior Thoracic Muscles
The anterior thoracic muscles include the serratus anterior, subclavius, and...

Milwaukee shoulder syndrome, a rare destructive arthritis, typically affects elderly women. This report details the first case from India, highlighting its uncommon presentation with joint destruction and specific crystal presence.

Area of Science:

  • Rheumatology
  • Orthopedics
  • Crystal Arthropathies

Background:

  • Milwaukee shoulder syndrome is a rare, destructive arthritis of the shoulder.
  • It predominantly affects elderly women and is characterized by limited pain, rotator cuff tears, and joint destruction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report the first case of Milwaukee shoulder syndrome diagnosed in India.
  • To contribute to the sparse literature on this uncommon condition.

Main Methods:

  • Clinical presentation review.
  • Radiological assessment (X-ray, MRI).
  • Synovial fluid analysis for crystal identification (calcium apatite).

Main Results:

  • The case presented with typical features: elderly female, rotator cuff tear, joint instability, and marked bone destruction.

  • Synovial fluid analysis confirmed the presence of calcium apatite crystals.
  • Radiological imaging showed significant joint and bone destruction.
  • Conclusions:

    • This case represents the first documented instance of Milwaukee shoulder syndrome in India.
    • The findings underscore the importance of considering this rare diagnosis in elderly patients with destructive shoulder arthritis, even in geographic regions where it is sparsely reported.
