Caption
This is a transverse view of the anterior shoulder of a patient who presented to the emergency department with a fever and shoulder pain causing limited mobility. Looking closer, we can observe hyperechoic densities caused by air within the tissues, otherwise no signs of septic joint or bursitis.
