Abstract

Isolated infraspinatus atrophy is rare and difficult to confirm based on physical examination, although external rotation lag signs may provide a clue to the diagnosis. We present a case of isolated infraspinatus weakness caused by suprascapular neuropathy presenting as abnormal shoulder posture.
