Shoulder Dislocation: Or something else? Differential Diagnosis

Injuries, poisonings, and other sequelae of external causes (S00-T98).

  • Acute tendinitis calcarea (synonym: calcifying tendinitis) – in this case, calcific deposits in tendons and tendon attachments are the underlying cause
  • Floating shoulder – subsidence of the shoulder girdle due to an untreated fracture (fracture) of the scapula, shoulder level and clavicle.
  • Fracture (fracture) in the shoulder joint area.
  • Omarthritis – acute inflammation of the shoulder joint.
  • Rotator cuff rupture – tear of the rotator cuff (group of four muscles whose tendons, together with the ligamentum coracohumerale, form a coarse tendon cap that encompasses the shoulder joint).
  • Shoulder contusion (shoulder contusion)
