Milwaukee Shoulder Syndrome (MSS)

Milwaukee Shoulder Syndrome (MSS) is a condition characterised by rapid joint destruction and severe pain in the shoulder, often seen in elderly patients with a history of rotator cuff tears or chronic inflammation. It is clinically significant due to its association with significant morbidity, requiring prompt diagnosis and management to prevent further joint deterioration. A key complication includes the development of glenohumeral osteoarthritis, which can severely impact mobility and quality of life.
