As the natural history of frozen shoulder is poorly documented, a prospective study of 40 patients followed up for 40-48 months (mean 44 months) is described. The range of movement was significantly less than age- and sex-matched controls. Objective restriction was severe in five patients and mild in a further 11. Patients were often unaware that shoulder range was impaired. Dominant arm involv...

Frozen shoulder or adhesive capsulitis is a condition in the form of pain and stiffness that occurs shoulder, usually this complaint caused by relatively small injury but causes often occur are unclear. Physiological problems frozen hypomobility glenohumeral joint capsular pattern problems. The prevalence Indonesia general population reported to be around 2% with 11% diabetics. purpose study wa...

In a series of 12 patients with inoperable gastric carcinoma who had treatment with a synthetic matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor (Marimastat) for more than one month, six developed a frozen shoulder or a condition resembling Dupuytren's disease. This suggests that the matrix metalloproteinases, a family of naturally occurring proteinases, may be involved in the pathogenesis of these two condi...

COMPARISON OF THE EFFECT SCAPULAR STABILIZATION AND MOBILIZATION TECHNIQUES ON PAIN RANGE MOTION GLENOHUMERAL JOINT IN WOMEN WITH FROZEN SHOULDER

BACKGROUND We developed a frozen autograft technique in which a tumor-bearing bone was treated with liquid nitrogen for reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional outcomes of this technique after resection of humeral bone tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eight patients were included in the study. The freezing range was classified into 2 groups, depending on whether t...

Arthroscopic pancapsular release has been recommended for recalcitrant frozen shoulder, but regaining range of motion has not been sufficient compared with the unaffected side. There is no consensus about the reasons for these remaining restrictions in range of motion, but residual capsular or connective tissue must be considered a candidate. A thickened coracohumeral ligament at the rotator in...
