Left shoulder: There is osteophytosis of the supraglenoid tubercle and the caudal humeral head, as well as the bicipital groove. The joint appears congruent.
Right shoulder: There is proximomedial subluxation of the right shoulder joint, best seen on the caudocranial projection. Osteophytes are present on the caudal humeral head, bicipital groove, and supraglenoid tubercle.

Ultrasonography of the shoulder was performed. The right supraspinatus tendon was ruptured, and the right biceps tendon was partially ruptured. There was marked synovitis and effusion of the joint. A shoulder arthrodesis was performed for stabilization.
