title: Infraspinatus muscle contracture associated with trauma in a dog.
abstract: Infraspinatus muscle contracture was diagnosed in a 4 1/2-year-old female Doberman Pinscher with lameness characterized by abduction and outward rotation of the right antebrachium and carpus. After infraspinatus tenotomy, the dog recovered. This case differs from previously reported cases of infraspinatus muscle contracture because of an associated history of blunt trauma.
