Escherichia coli septic arthritis is rare and usually occurs in patients with underlying systemic disorders. Most commonly the hip joint is involved and the E. coli septic arthritis is caused by an intraabdominal source (e.g., an abscess communicating with the hip joint). We report the first case of E. coli septic arthritis involving the shoulder joint in a diabetic patient.
大肠杆菌性脓毒性关节炎较为罕见，通常发生在有潜在全身性疾病的患者中。最常累及的关节是髋关节，大肠杆菌性脓毒性关节炎由腹腔内源性感染（如与髋关节相通的脓肿）引起。我们报告了首例糖尿病患者发生的累及肩关节的大肠杆菌性脓毒性关节炎。
