The glenohumeral joint is a remarkable articulation providing the greatest range of motion of any joint in the body. Glenohumeral stability results from several mechanisms, including those that do not require expenditure of energy by muscle ("passive mechanisms") and those that do ("active mechanisms"). Glenohumeral instability has been recognized in 47 shoulders of 45 dogs and one cat. Cases are presented because of chronic foreleg lameness. Shoulder joint pain is obviated by the orthopedic examination. Only 57% of the involved shoulders presented with degenerative joint disease. Signs of instability are recognized under anesthesia using a craniocaudal or mediolateral drawer sign or both. This report describes the radiographic and arthroscopic findings of shoulder instability. Arthroscopy of the shoulder joint allows identification of all intra-articular pathologies. Shoulder instability, not fully recognized in the past, appears to be the most common cause of shoulder lameness in the dog.

Infections caused byEwingella americanahave been rarely reported in the literature. Most of the cases that have been reported were among the immunocompromised patients. We report a case ofE. americanacausing osteomyelitis and septic arthritis of the shoulder joint in a previous intravenous drug abuser. The causative pathogen was identified by synovial fluid analysis and culture.

Background- Rotator cuff tears are one of the most common causes of shoulder pain for which patients seek treatment. As in our daily work, the shoulder joint is the most frequently used, there is higher chance of having shoulder joint injury. The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of MRI in diagnosing shoulder pathologies in comparison to arthroscopy, considering arthroscopy as the gold standard. Methods- 30 Patient with suspected rotator cuff injury patients, between 18-80 years of age was included in the study. MRI of the shoulder joint was done followed by shoulder arthroscopy. The data collected was analysed for the significant correlation between MRI of shoulder and arthroscopic findings by kappa statistics. Results- The accuracy of MRI in diagnosis of rotator cuff partial tears, was 90%, while sensitivity and specificity was 100.00%, 78.57% and positive predictive value was 84.21% and negative predictive value was 100.00% and accuracy of MRI in diagnosis of rotator cuff full tears, was 86.67%, while sensitivity and specificity was 63.64%, 100.00%) and positive predictive value was 100.00% and negative predictive value was 82.61% in our study. Conclusion- Our study demonstrates a high sensitivity and specificity for the MRI diagnosis of both partial and full thickness rotator cuff tears and good correlation with arthroscopic findings. Keywords: Rotator cuff, Shoulder pain, Arthroscopy, MRI.
