AB Three patients with the droopy shoulder syndrome are described. This condition occurs most often in young women who are mildly or moderately depressed. Their shoulders are painful and the only clinical sign is drooping of the shoulders. There are no signs of neurologic abnormality. A lateral radiograph of the cervical spine shows all seven cervical vertebrae, the first thoracic vertebra and part or all of the second thoracic vertebra.
