PURPOSE: Neuroarthropathy is a progressive joint degeneration secondary to neurological diseases. In the upper extremity, the shoulder is the most exposed, and it is mainly caused by syringomyelia. This condition is rare; therefore, the literature has documented only a few case reports or case series of small groups of patients.
METHODS: We collected data about patients with shoulder arthropathy due to syringomyelia who were treated in our two institutes and collected among members of the Polish Shoulder and Elbow Society. Our analysis was based on epidemiological data, symptoms, and clinical examinations. We also examined the results of diagnostic tests, including-spinal cord MRI and shoulder X-ray, and treatment methods and their effectiveness.
RESULTS: The examined group included 10 women with an average age of 63 years. Of these, nine patients reported pain, seven reported-swelling, and nine reported-weakness. In every patient, diagnosis was confirmed by X-ray of the shoulder with joint degeneration and MRI of the spinal cord with syrinx. Two patients were operated with reverse shoulder arthroplasty; the first one had excellent result-significant active range of motion improvement and reduction of symptoms, and the second one had a good result-pain relief and moderate range of motion improvement. Other patients were conservatively treated, resulting in total or partial symptoms relief but without significant range of motion improvement.
CONCLUSION: Charcot shoulder secondary to syringomyelia was mainly manifested by range of motion limitation, swelling, and pain. Both conservative and surgical treatments could be a good solution. However, if reverse arthroplasty is technically possible, it seems to be the most promising treatment for recovering function.
