Axillary web syndrome (AWS) is a clinical syndrome that usually seen after surgical intervention to axillary region. Fibrosis surrounded sclerotic vein and lymphatic tissue (cording), can extends from axilla to arm and hand. AWS can limit off shoulder range of motion (ROM) and can be the cause of shoulder pain. In the case we share, it is noteworthy that any predisposing factor does not exist. 41-year-old male patient was admitted our outpatient clinic with pain and feeling of tension on the right axilla which started 2 weeks ago during the daily activities. On the physical examination there was a subcutaneous cord that was visible from the right axillary region to the middle of the right arm. His right shoulder movements were limited and painful. The patient was prescribed oral nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID), electrotherapy program and shoulder stretching/strengthening exercises. After 2 months, on the re-examination, his right shoulder ROM was painless and in normal range; the subcutaneous cording had completely recovered. Clinicians should consider AWS, in differential diagnosis in patients with axillary region/shoulder pain and shoulder ROM limitation. These patients may benefit from appropriate combination therapies that include physical therapy modalities and NSAIDs.
