Complication of barbotage, acute calcific bursitis treated successfully.
Journal of Radiology Case Reports 2023 August
One of the most common causes of chronic shoulder pain that significantly impairs patients' quality of life is rotator cuff calcific tendinitis. The supportive approach of analgesics, anti-inflammatory medications, and physiotherapy is preferred to treat mild symptoms. However, severe intractable symptoms necessitate alternative treatment, and ultrasonography-guided percutaneous barbotage is regarded as an effective treatment technique due to its minimal invasiveness, low cost, and rapid significant pain relief. Post-barbotage complications are reported as acute calcific bursitis along with infection, bleeding, and tendon rupture. In our case, a 41-year-old female presented with a substantial amount of pain shortly after barbotage, which was diagnosed as acute calcific bursitis, a complication of the procedure. Subacromial-subdeltoid steroid injection was used successfully to treat this condition.
