ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the value of ultrasonographic diagnosis of deltoid contracture (DC). Methods A total of 37 children with bilateral asymmetric shoulder were reviewed retrospectively, and 8 cases with 9 shoulders were surgically confirmed DC. The results of the ultrasonography and surgery were compared. Results The sensitivity of ultrasonographic diagnosis of DC was 88.89% and specificity was 100%. No statistically significant difference of contracture thickness measurement was found between surgery and ultrasonography. Ultrasonographic findings of DC in children included hyperechoic areas (7 cases) or hypoechoic area (1 case). Conclusion Ultrasounogrphy is an effective method for diagnosis of DC in children.
