“…Nevertheless, after 4.1 months of follow-up, 32.5% of the patients required operative treatment because of persisting symptoms. The overall risk of sustaining a subacromial infection following subacromial infiltration, as performed in our cohort, is extremely small [12]. Under sterile conditions, the infection rate following intra-articular injection of corticoids is 1:162,000 [13].…”

“…A large fluid collection with surrounding tissue edema suggesting cellulitis is usually consistent with septic bursitis but should always be clinically correlated [10]. Needle aspiration will confirm the diagnosis and identify the pathogen with appropriate analysis and culture of the bursal fluid [10].…”

“…Depending on the severity of the illness, treatment of subacromial/subdeltoid bursitis includes oral and parenteral antibiotics, needle aspiration, incision and drainage, and surgical debridement [10]. All of the cases reported in literature were treated similarly through surgical and medical interventions.…”

International Journal of Case Reports and Images (IJCRI) is an international, peer reviewed, monthly, open access, online journal, publishing high-quality, articles in all areas of basic medical sciences and clinical specialties.Aim of IJCRI is to encourage the publication of new information by providing a platform for reporting of unique, unusual and rare cases which enhance understanding of disease process, its diagnosis, management and clinico-pathologic correlations. IJCRI publishes Review ABSTRACTIntroduction: Isolated infection of the subacromial bursa is a rare entity. Primary subacromial septic bursitis is uncommon compared to other superficial bursa because of its deep anatomic location. The potential for an underlying spread of infection to unusual sites has been reported in the setting of diabetes mellitus and can very easily be overlooked. Case Report: We describe the clinical presentation, radiological investigations and strategies for the management of a 59-year-old diabetic male presented with subacromial bursitis as a result of Streptococcus pneumoniae infection. It resolved without sequelae using oral and parenteral antibiotics, incision and drainage, and surgical debridement. The range of motion improved gradually until full recovery. Conclusion: Subacromial septic bursitis is rarely reported in medical literature. Its fast identification and treatment is needed to allow full recovery of range of motion.

“…Direct inoculation of deep bursa is uncommon, but iatrogenic infection resulting from bursal injections of glucocorticoids (e.g., subacromial, iliopsoas, or trochanteric bursae) may rarely occur. 13. In the absence of a known inoculation, infection of deep bursae are presumed to be due to haematogenous seeding or spread from an adjacent septic site such as contiguous septic arthritis.…”

BACKGROUNDBursitis is described as inflammation of a bursa. Bursitis may result from several causes like 1,2 direct injury or trauma, prolonged pressure, overuse or strenuous activity, crystal-induced arthropathy, inflammatory arthritis and infection (septic bursitis). The majority of cases of septic bursitis are due to bacterial pathogens. More recently, reports have appeared in the literature of chronic infectious bursitis caused by fungi and occurring in both immunocompromised and healthy immunocompetent individuals. 3
