Rapid idiopathic osteolysis of the shoulder
Idiopathic osteolysis (Gorham s disease) is an extremely rare occurrence. The etiology of osteolysis is as yet unknown. A history of minor trauma may be a factor. Bones begin to resorb, partially or completely as a localised erosion, and from this, sloe centrifugal absorption of a large piece of the skeleton takes place. The osteolytic process may halt spontaneously after years of progression. This case reports a patient with idiopathic osteolysis of the shoulder. The clinical, radiographic, and histological features are presented. Complete destruction of the bones without known causes was observed only sixteen months after onset of symptoms. The authors believe this to be the first case of such rapid progression of this disease.
