Shoulder Diagnostic Imaging Approach | El Paso, TX.

Overview of Shoulder Anatomy

shoulder imaging el paso tx.

Acute Trauma

  • Proximal humeral Fx account for 4-6% of all Fxs. Osteoporotic (OSP) Fx in >60 y.o associated with minimal trauma with F: M 2:1 ratio. In young patients, acute high energy trauma predominates.
  • Complications: AVN humeral head, Axillary N paralysis.
  • Neer Classification: considers fractures along 4-anatomical lines with or w/o displacement >1-cm & 45-degree angulation
  • One part Neer Fx- no displacement or very minimal <1-cm/45-degree. Can affect 1-4 lines and M/C at greater tuberosity. 80% of proximal humeral Fx are one-part Neer.
  • Two-part Fx: 1-part is displaced >1-cm/45-degrees. m/c involves the surgical neck
  • Three-part Fx: 2-parts are displaced >1-cm/45-degrees.
  • Four-part Fx: all 4-parts can be displaced. Uncommon <1%
  • Imaging: 1st step-radiography, CT may be used in more complex cases. Orthopedic referral
  • Management: Neer one-part Fx is treated with Sling Immobilisation and progressive rehab
  • The vast majority of Fx in the elderly are treated non-operatively
  • Younger patients (40-65) may occasionally require hemiarthroplasty if 3 or 4-part Neer Fx present. Greater risk of AVN

Proximal Humerus Fractures

  • Note: Left image: Fx involving the anatomical neck and the greater tuberosity with minimal displacement <1-cm/45-degree thus Dx as one-part Fx. Right image: Small avulsion Fx of the greater tuberosity with significant displacement (>45-degrees & 1-cm) thus Dx as two-part Fx

Shoulder Dislocation aka Glenohumeral Joint dislocation (GHJD)

  • Refers to complete separation of the humerus from scapula glenoid. In 20-40s M: F 9:1 ratio, in60-80S M: F 3:1
  • Anatomy: Shoulder stability is sacrificed for mobility and overall GHJD is the m/c among large joints in the body
  • Protective falls (e.g. FOOSH) and MVA are m/c causes. GHJ is most vulnerable in abduction, extension and external rotation. Anatomical factors: shallow glenoid, laxed ant-inferior capsule and GH ligaments. GHJD will induce severe tearing of major GHJ restraints. Associated osseous and labral injuries are common and may lead to chronic instability, DJD, and functional changes
  • 3-types: Anterior GHJD (95%)
  • Posterior GHJD (4%) especially associated with epileptic seizures, electrocution and can occur b/l
  • Inferior GHJD aka Laxatio Erecta (<1%) associated with severe trauma
  • Clinically: AGHJD presents with severe pain, the arm is externally rotated and adducted, severe limitation of movement. GHJD may persist as chronic dislocation.
  • Management: prompt reduction in ED under anesthesia or heavy sedation with Kocher technique top image (not used), External rotation method (middle) or Milch technique (can be used w/o anesthesia) and a few other methods. Delay in reduction correlates with greater risk of immediate and long-term complications

Diagnostic Imaging Approach

  • shoulder series x-radiography is sufficient. Additional Imaging with CT scanning and/or MRI may be helpful to Dx osseous, cartilage, labral/ligaments pathology
  • Anterior GHJD (95%). Subcoracoid position(top right) of the humerus is the m/c
  • Anterior GHJD may also occur as subglenoid(bottom left)and infrequently as subclavicular
  • Key to radiographic search is to evaluated associated Bankart and Hill-Sachs injuries
shoulder imaging el paso tx.

Bankart Lesion

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • occurs during anterior GHJD d/t impaction of the head into anterior-inferior glenoid. Variations exist (see next slide). BonyBankart can be seen on x-rays. So-called soft tissue Bankart requires MRI. Cartilage (soft)Bankart is the m/c.
  • Hill-Sachs aka Hatchet deformity (arrow postreduction)occurs during the same mechanism as Bankart i.e. compression and impaction of posterolateral aspect of the head against the glenoid producing wedge-shape Fx. Hill-Sachs lesion may predispose to recurrent/chronic GHJD.
  • Bankart lesion may heal but operative suture anchors are needed sometimes
  • CT arthrogramme and MRI may be helpful

Types of Bankart Lesion

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Note different types of Bankart lesion. Onlyosseous Bankart can be seen radiographically. Soft tissue Bankart requires MRI with and without intra-articular gadolinium(arthrogramme).

Posterior Dislocation

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Note: posterior GHJD with its characteristic signs:
  • Trough sign aka reverse Hill-Sachs. Occurs d/t antero-lateral head impaction Fx
  • Rim sign: only occurs in PGHJD d/t posterior position of the head and anterior glenoid-to humeral head distance 6-mm or greater
  • Light-bulb sign: d/t acute internal rotation of the humerus (head)

Inferior GHJD

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Inferior GHJD aka Laxatio Erecta
  • Severe hyperabduction and inferior displacement of the humerus. Greater chances of severe neurovascular injury and acromial Fx
  • Dislocated arm is hyperabducted and fixed with the elbow flexed and the arm above the head

ACJ Dislocation (ACJD)

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • ACJD: common injury, 9% of shoulder girdle injuries esp. in male athletes by direct blow
  • Rockwood classification (left) evaluates tearing of AC and CC ligaments and regional muscles
  • Type1, 2, 3 among the m/c
  • Type 1: sprain of ACL w/o tearing
  • Type 2: tear of ACL and sprain of CCL
  • Type 3: tear of AC & CCL. Clavicle is elevated above the acromion. If <2-cm good results with conservative Rx.
  • Imaging: x-radiography with b/l ACJ views with and w/o weights to compare both ACJs. In complex cases CT scanning esp. if Fx is considered
  • Management: Type 3 (>2-cm) & Types 4-6Operative

Type 3 ACJ Separation

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Type 3 ACJ separation (top left)
  • More significant ACJD (bottom images) with clinical sign of acromion under the skin and resultant ORIF

Rotator Cuff Muscles (RCM) Pathology

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • RCM tendinopathy: collagenous degeneration of RCM particularly Supraspinatus M. tendon(SSMT) d/t overuse/degeneration-micro tearing with collagenous replacement. Impingement syndrome is 2nd extrinsic cause. Presented clinically as pain and limited ROM
  • Imaging Dx: MSK US can be as accurate as MRI and better in some cases d/t dynamic evaluation v. cost effective
  • Key MRI clue is thickened inhomogeneous SSMTwith increased signal on all pulse sequences d/t fatty degeneration and inflammation (left images: T1 & T2 FS)
  • MSKUS findings: thickening of the SSMTsubstance with change in normal echogenicity.MSKUS is good to DDx with SSMT tears. US advantages is that it allows dynamic evaluation of painful structures
shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Partial tear of SSMT: partial (incomplete) tear ofSSMT may occur at the bursal and/or articular surface or interstitial i.e. intra-substance/noncommunicating. Etiology: sub-acromial impingement, acute strain, and chronic microtrauma tendinosis
  • Clinically: pain on abd and flexion, impingement tests, Hawkins-Kennedy tests, etc. Pearls: partial tears can be more painful than complete tears
  • Imaging Dx: MSKUS is as good as MRI (N.B.some studies indicated MSKUS is more superior to MRI). Key MRI findings: gap/incomplete tear of SSMT filled with joint fluid +/- granulation tissue
  • MSKUS: decreased echogenicity of SSMT, thinning and partial tearing filled with fluid(anechoic areas arrows). Lost convexity of tendon bursal or articular interface.
shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Full Thickness SSMT (rot cuff) tear: degeneration/tearing of rot cuff. 2nd to impingement by Hooked acromion, overhead overuse or acute trauma. 7-25% of shoulder pain in the general population. Clinically: pain on impingement tests.
  • Imaging Dx: MSKUS is as good as MRI.Limitations: poor Dx of labral pathology. Key USDx: focal tendon interruption, anechoic gap (fluid filled), hypoechoic tendon, tendon retraction, uncovered cartilage sign (bottom left, A: US B: MRI)
  • MRI: key Dx: insertional tear extending through entire SSMT crescent, retraction with fatty degeneration of SSMT and the muscle. If retraction is at 12 o’clock or greater (top images) it may not be anchored operatively
shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Rotator Cuff (RTC) Calcific Tendinitis: usually d/t calcium HADD crystals. Middle-aged women are most affected. Ranges from an asymptomatic imaging finding to severe destructive arthropathy or Milwaukee shoulder(infrequent)
  • HADD has 3-pathological phases: formation resting-resorption.Mild-to-moderate pain esp.in resting phase.
  • Imaging: x-radiography: homogenous ovoid mineralization within RTCMT, m/c in SSMT. MRI: ovoid/globular decreased signal on all pulse sequences often with surrounding edema (bottom left)
  • Rx: self-resolution occurs. Advanced cases: operative aspiration etc.

Superior Labrum Anterior to Posterior (SLAP) Lesions/Tears

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • SLAP tears: FOOSH and throwing sports or chronicshoulder instability aka Multidirectiona shoulderinstability (in 20%). Type 1-9 exist but the M/C areType 1-4
  • In all 4-types superior labrum is affected with or w/oLHBMT anchor tear (see pictures). Clinically: pain, limitation of AROM with active compression tests, typically non-specific findings mimicking RTCpathology
  • Imaging is crucial: best imaging is MRI arthrography. Key signs: hyperintense linear fluid signal withinsuperior labrum +/- extending along the LHBT on fatsuppressedfluid sensitive imaging and FS T1arthrogramme. Best observed on coronal slices.
  • Rx: small tears may heal but unstable tears requireoperative care.
  • Key DDx: anatomical variants like Buford complex andSub-labral foramen
shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • SLAP tear with paralabral cyst (bottom right)
  • Normal variant DDx: sub labral foramen(bottom left) note: MR arthrography with contrast undercutting the labrum but w/o extending posterior to the LHBT

Shoulder Arthritis

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • GHJ DJD: usually associated with 2nd cause: trauma, instability, AVN, CPPD etc. Presented with pain, crepitus and decreased ROM/function. Associated RTC disease may be present. Imaging; x-radiography is sufficient and provides grading/care planning.Major findings: joint narrowing, osteophytosis esp. at inferior-medial head (orange arrow), subchondral sclerosis/cysts. Often noted superior head migration d/t RTC disease.
  • ACJ OA: common and typically primary withaging. Presents with ACJ loss andosteophytes. Osteophytes along theundersurface of the ACJ “keel osteophytes”(blue arrow) may lead to RTC muscle tear. Regional bursitis is other clinical feature ofACJ arthrosis.
  • Management: usually conservative dependingon clinical signs/symptoms
shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis GHJ: RA is a multisystem inflammatory disease affecting multiple joints lined by the synovium. GHJ RA is common (m/c large joints in RA knees/shoulders). Clinically: pain, limited ROM and instability, muscle weakness/wasting. Hands, feet, and wrists are m/c affected. Imaging: x-radiography reveals periarticular erosions, uniform joint space loss, juxta-articular osteoporosis, subluxations, and soft tissue swelling. MRI can help detect commonly associated RTC tearing and instability. Early changes can be detected by MSKUS esp. with power Doppler use indicating hyperemia/inflammation.
  • Note: L shoulder x-ray revealing cartilage destructionand symmetrical joint loss, multiple erosions, andlikely loss of RTCM support with superior headmigration, ST effusion present.
  • Note: PDFS coronal and axial MRI slices of GHJ RAindicating marked inflammatory joint effusion, boneerosion/edema, synovial pannus formation and likelytear in RTC m. Management: Rheumatological referraland pharmacotherapy with DMARD. Operative care asRTCM repair. 10% of patients are disabled d/t RA
shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Neuropathic Osteoarthropathy aka Charcot shoulder: d/t neurovascular and neural periarticular damage. Multiple causes exist.M/c develops in diabetics in midfoot. Shoulder Charcot is m/c in Syringomyelia (25%), trauma paralysis, MS, etc. Dx: clinical(50% pain/swelling 50% painless destruction). Imaging is crucial. X-radiography is sufficient in well-established cases, but early Dx is challenging. MRI may help with early Dx and delayed complications. Rad Dx: Shoulder Charcot is m/c presented as atrophic type destructive arthropathy with humeral head appearing as if surgically amputated along with intra-articular debris, density, distention, dislocation, and other key features
shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Septic Shoulder: shoulder is the 3rd m/c followingknee>hips. Patients at risk: diabetics, RA pts, immunocompromised, I.V. drug users, indwelling catheters etc. Routes: hematogenous (m/c), direct inoculation (iatrogenic, trauma etc.) adjacent spread(e.g. OM). Staph. Aureus (>50%) m/c.
  • Clinically: joint pain and dec. ROM, fever 60% only, toxemia, inc. ESR/CRP. Dx: imaging and joint aspiration/culture. RadDx: early x-rays often unremarkable except ST effusion/fat planes obscuration, joint widening. Later7-12 days patchy osteopenia, moth-eaten/permeating bone resorption, articular destruction, joint narrowing. May progress to severe joint destruction and ankyloses. Early Dx & I.V. antibiotics are crucial even before culture. Operative irrigation and joint drainage in some cases. Complications are possible esp. if Rx is delayed. MSKUS with needle aspiration may help. Note: (top image) non-traumatic joint widening with inferolateral head displacement d/t septic A dx: by needle aspiration Staph. Aures.

Ischemic Osteonecrosis

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Ischemic Osteonecrosis of the humeral head may occur d/t trauma (Neer four-part Fx), Steroids, Lupus, Sickle cell, Alcoholism, Diabetes, and many other conditions. Imaging is crucial: MRI detects earliest changes as intra osseous edema. X-ray features are late, presented as collapse of subchondral bone with sclerosis “snow cap” sign, fragmentation, and progressive severe DJD
  • Management: orthopedic referral, core decompression in early cases, hemiarthroplasty in moderate and total arthroplasty in severe cases.

Shoulder Neoplasms

shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • In adults >40, bone mets d/t lung, breast,renal cell, thyroid CA & prostate are the m/ccauses. Clinically: may mimic pain resemblingRTC/joint changes. Should be evaluatedcarefully. Key to Dx: Hx, PE and Imaging esp.in pts with known primary
  • Imaging: 1st step x-rays, MRI can help, Tc99bone scintigraphy helps to detect regional and distant disease. X-ray features: lyticdestructive changes typically in prox humerus(red marrow) with or w/o path Fx. DDx: mets, MM, lymphoma
  • Clinically: night pain, pain at rest etc. Labtests: unrewarding, in severe caseshypercalcemia may be noted.
shoulder imaging el paso tx.
  • Primary Malignant bone neoplasms (shoulder) Adults: M. Myeloma or Solitary plasmacytoma, Chondrosarcoma may transform from an enchondroma and some others. In children/teenagers: OSA vs. Ewing’s
  • Primary benign bone neoplasms (shoulder). Adults: Enchondroma (patients in their 20-30s)GCT. In children: Simple bone cyst (Unicameral Bone cyst), Osteochondroma, Aneurysmal Bone Cyst, Chondroblastoma (rare)
  • Imaging: 1st step x-radiography
  • MRI is essential to Dx. Especially in cases of primary malignant neoplasms Evaluate extent, soft tissue invasion, preoperative planning, staging, etc.
