Abstract
Tuberculosis of the shoulder joint is uncommon. In adults the classical dry type of shoulder tuberculosis ( caries sicca) has been described, while the fulminating variety has not been reported. We treated a case of fulminating variety of tuberculosis of the shoulder joint with anti-tubercular therapy and a shoulder immobilizer sling. At 18 months of follow up, the patient was disease free and had a good functional range of motion.
