✦ Synopsis

Drooping shoulder, or inferior subluxation of the glenohumeral joint, must be differentiated from true dislocation of the humeral head. In some instances, widening of the glenohumeral joint can be attributed to a large volume of intra-articular fluid. Three patients with septic arthritis leading to drooping shoulder are described, representing the largest series with this development reported to date.
