Abstract

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body. Because it serves as a way station for the nerves supplying the upper limb, it creates a potential for nerve lesions that may be caused or significantly influenced by the complex dynamics of the shoulder girdle. This article presents the most commonly encountered lesions as well as an algorithm for their diagnosis and treatment.
