BACKGROUND
Shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) occurs when an intramuscular deltoid injection is administered into the shoulder joint. This observational study describes clinical features in 16 patients with SIRVA following Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination who presented to chiropractic, orthopedic, and physiotherapy clinics in Hong Kong between January 1, 2021, and January 1, 2022.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Adults age ≥18 with new-onset shoulder pain and imaging-confirmed shoulder pathology were retrospectively identified from 35 clinics. Patient demographics and clinical and vaccination details were extracted from the electronic medical record. Shoulder injury was determined by correlating clinical and imaging features.
RESULTS
Of 730 patients with shoulder pain, 16 SIRVA cases (mean age, 49±10 years, 75% female) were identified; (12/16, 75%) of patients received the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine while (4/16, 25%) received Sinovac-CoronaVac. The most common diagnosis was adhesive capsulitis (10/16, 63%), followed by bursitis (3/16, 19%) and supraspinatus tear (3/16, 19%). Mean symptom onset was 3.5±2.5 days post-vaccination, and always occurred after the 2nd or 3rd vaccination, involving reduced shoulder range of motion (ROM). Mean baseline pain was 8.1±1 (out of 10). All patients received conservative care (eg, exercise, manual therapies). At 3-month follow-up, mean pain reduced to 2.4±1.4; all patients had normal shoulder ROM.
CONCLUSIONS
In the past 2 years, millions of intramuscular COVID-19 vaccinations have been administered. It is important that clinicians are aware of SIRVA as a cause of new symptoms of shoulder injury and should ask the patient about recent vaccinations, including for COVID-19.
