De novo arthropathy following glucocorticoid treatment for severe alcohol-associated hepatitis: Five case reports

Figure 1 Left shoulder ultrasound evaluation of case 4. A: Supraspinatus tendon of heterogeneous texture, calcium deposit (white arrow), but no bone cortical damage (yellow arrows); B: Doppler imaging showing isolated mild Doppler signal (red color); no significant signal is observed in the enthesis nor in the bone cortical (orange arrows), indicating the absence of inflammation; C: Subscapularis tendon, calcium deposit (white arrow), but no bone cortical damage (yellow arrows); D: Doppler imaging showing no signal in the enthesis nor in the bone cortical (orange arrows), indicating the absence of inflammation; intense Doppler signal in the subscapularis tendon’s superior fibers (red color, white arrowhead), indicating tendinopathy. SS: Supraspinatus tendon; SubS: Subscapularis tendon.
