title: Shoulder pain.
abstract: A review of conditions producing shoulder pain in the adult indicates the diverse nature of the various processes. Particularly important are diseases leading to articular abnormalities of the glenohumeral, acromioclavicular, and sternoclavicular articulations as well as surrounding structures such as the rotator cuff. Accurate diagnosis of the conditions requires careful radiographic examination supplemented with specialized techniques, including fluoroscopy, arthrography, and conventional or computed tomography.
