Core Tip	Neuropathic arthropathy, also called Charcot shoulder, is a chronic, degenerative condition associated with decreased sensory innervation. Syringomyelia patients typically suffer with shoulder and elbow involvement. Since joint symptoms often appear before other signs, neurological deficits are often overshadowed, and the condition is misdiagnosed. In cases of unexplained joint pain, discomfort, and limited range of motion, syringomyelia should always be considered even in the absence of detectable neurological features. To prevent misdiagnoses, clinicians should be aware of the clinical and radiological signs of this rare condition. Timely diagnoses are important to avoid unwanted operative procedures that could lead to unsatisfactory outcomes.
