“…12,16 Our experience would support this. There may be minimal symptoms or the condition may be asymptomatic, 11,12,15,19 making underdiagnosis inevitable. The aetiology and inheritance are poorly understood.…”

“…None had enlargement of the acro- mion, 6,12,21,25 but six had a prominent coracoid process. 6,12,14,21,22 All patients had a 'dentate', irregular appearance of the glenoid 1,21,25 although the four with marked osteoarthritis were excluded. Retroversion of the glenoid was seen.…”

“…The underlying cause of this failure of ossification is not established. There appears to be a familial pattern in a small number of cases, 12,15,27 but in most patients there is no definite family history. A number of conditions may be associated with a similar deformity 15,32 including Erb's palsy, muscular dystrophy, aseptic osteochondritis, avitaminosis D, avitaminosis C, haemophiliac arthropathy and neonatal septic arthritis.…”

“…A number of conditions may be associated with a similar deformity 15,32 including Erb's palsy, muscular dystrophy, aseptic osteochondritis, avitaminosis D, avitaminosis C, haemophiliac arthropathy and neonatal septic arthritis. 12 Such cases are often unilateral and should easily be excluded on clinical and radiological grounds. Other secondary causes have been described by Currarino et al 1 who divided glenoid dysplasia into five groups according to the underlying condition.…”

“…Usually a primary isolated lesion, it can be seen in association with other anomalies, or as part of well-described syndromes, and has recently been categorised into five specific groups. 1 Previous reports have observed glenoid dysplasia to present with a variety of symptoms and variable radiological findings, ranging from an asymptomatic incidental finding on a chest radiograph 11,12 to shoulder pain and dysfunction. 4,[6][7][8][9][13][14][15][16][17][18][20][21][22] We report our observations in 12 patients with primary glenoid dysplasia who form two groups based on their age at the onset of symptoms.…”

W e reviewed 12 patients with primary glenoid dysplasia. Ten were assessed clinically and two from case notes and radiographs. We identified two groups according to the age at onset of symptoms. The first (seven patients) consisted of boys and younger men, all of whom developed symptoms before the age of 40 years. All four children were free from pain, whereas the three adults in this group had varying degrees of this. Four patients had symptoms of instability. The second group consisted of older men (five patients) all of whom had noted the onset of symptoms, in the form of pain and stiffness, after the age of 40 years. All five had radiological evidence of osteoarthritis.Although the four children in our study had minimal symptoms, all eight adults had ongoing shoulder pain and dysfunction, despite a specific rehabilitation programme. Four patients required surgery; one had posterior stabilisation for instability and three arthroplasties of the shoulder for osteoarthritis. J Bone Joint Surg [Br] 2001;83-B:868-872.

A scapula deformity in two burials from medieval England

A scapula malformation is described in two burials from the site of the late medieval Dominican friary at Ipswich, UK. The changes appear most consistent with primary scapular neck dysplasia. One of the burials also showed clear signs of leprosy. The burials are of lay benefactors of the friary. The Ipswich Dominican friary had no known function as a leprosy hospital. Finding of burials of lepers other than in burial grounds of leprosaria is highly unusual for medieval England. Scapular neck dysplasia has a strong genetic component in its aetiology. This, coupled with its rarity, suggests a close genetic link between the two burials. The findings suggest that in this case, family ties with the friary overrode the normal medieval custom of interring lepers in leprosy hospitals. This illustrates that even rare skeletal variants may convey useful biocultural information about past populations.
