title: [A man with progressive neck and shoulder pain].
abstract: A 66-year-old man was referred to the hospital with progressive neck and right shoulder pain. Conventional radiographs and a thoracic CT-scan demonstrated destruction of the first rib on the right side due to a tumour invading the apical chest wall. The patient was diagnosed with a Pancoast tumour (i.e. superior sulcus tumour).
