| Core Tip |
We report our first encounter of a case of brucellosis in the shoulder joint, which was initially misdiagnosed as subacromial bursitis. A 26-year-old male was admitted with recurrent pain and limited movement of the right shoulder. The pain reportedly occurred first 6 mo previously and reoccurred 5 mo later, accompanied by limited movement of the shoulder. Diagnostic paracentesis and arthroscopic debridement were performed. Surprisingly, brucella growth was detected from the synovial fluid and confirmed by colony sample analysis using mass spectrometry. This case report is intended to increase awareness for brucellosis and help avoid future misdiagnoses by orthopedists and physicians. |
