    Author: Eckhouse SR, Person TD, Reed CE, Ikonomidis JS, Denlinger CE.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2010 Jul; 90(1):309-11. PubMed ID: 20609811.
    Abstract:
    Infections of the sternoclavicular joint associated with extensive local soft tissue involvement or abscess formation often require surgical debridement and drainage. This condition typically presents with joint pain, local erythema, and swelling. This case demonstrates the simultaneous extension of a sternoclavicular joint infection into the left upper pulmonary lobe and through the overlying skin.
