Fig. 1A 14-year-old girl (patient 1) with recurrent right shoulder pain and painful popping sensation. Coronal oblique fat-saturated T1-weighted MR arthrogram shows apparent "J" sign with disruption of humeral attachment of inferior glenohumeral ligament and subsequent contrast extravasation along medial humeral neck. Arrows show disruption of humeral attachment of inferior glenohumeral ligament complex outlined by "white" contrast dye in glenohumeral joint.

Fig. 2A 14-year-old girl (patient 2) with 3-month history of right shoulder pain associated with popping and clicking sensation. Coronal oblique fat-saturated T1-weighted MR arthrogram shows apparent "J" sign with disruption of humeral attachment of inferior glenohumeral ligament and subsequent contrast extravasation along medial humeral neck.

Fig. 2B 14-year-old girl (patient 2) with 3-month history of right shoulder pain associated with popping and clicking sensation. Arthroscopic image shows rent in inferior glenohumeral ligament in line with ligament fibers. Rent does not extend to humeral insertion.

Fig. 3A 25-year-old woman (patient 3) with right shoulder pain and history of traumatic injury 6 years earlier in motor vehicle accident. Coronal oblique fat-saturated T2-weighted MR arthrogram shows strands of tissue in axillary pouch thought to represent tear of inferior glenohumeral ligament and subsequent contrast extravasation along medial humeral neck.

Fig. 4A 21-year-old man (patient 4) who presented with continuing shoulder pain and limited range of motion after traumatic anterior dislocation of right shoulder 4 weeks earlier. Coronal oblique fat-saturated T2-weighted MR image appears to show disruption of inferior glenohumeral ligament at its humeral insertion (arrow), with associated soft-tissue edema tracking along medial humeral neck.
