Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to describe the imaging appearance, etiology, clinical features, and treatment of rare presentations of common bone and joint diseases known to mimic Hill-Sachs lesions. Knowledge of uncommonly encountered manifestations of ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, septic joint, hyperparathyroidism, hydroxyapatite deposition disease, malignant bone tumors, and benign bone cysts which mimic traumatic Hill-Sachs lesions is important for radiologists to guide the clinical care of patients who present with shoulder symptoms.
