Adhesive capsulitis, or frozen shoulder syndrome, is a condition characterized by gradual loss of active and passive glenohumeral motion. The etiology of adhesive capsulitis is unknown. Treatment methods include supervised benign neglect, physical therapy, intra-articular corticosteroid injections, closed manipulation under anesthesia, arthroscopic capsular release, and open surgical release. A...

Background: Frozen shoulder refers to a common condition characterized by general limitation of range motion in the capsule model. The capsular pattern is greatest passive lateral rotation and abduction. Physiotherapy most important part conservative treatment frozen shoulder. Aim: To find role Maitland mobilization technique with Mulligan’s techniques its possible effects early gaining ROM pai...

Twenty six adult reindeer steers (>3 years old) were used in a study to evaluate the effect of electrical stimulation (ES) on the quality of hot-boned, rapidly frozen shoulder meat and of the striploin (M. longissimus, LD) from carcasses held at +3°C for 48h. Carcass yield and composition was determined from the left carcass half from which the shoulder meat was not removed. The shoulder meat w...

Idiopathic adhesive capsulitis, or primary frozen shoulder syndrome, is a fairly common orthopaedic problem characterized by shoulder pain and loss of motion. In most cases, conservative treatment (6-month physical therapy program and intra-articular steroid injections) improves symptoms and restores shoulder motion. In refractory cases, arthroscopic capsular release is indicated. This surgical...

The effect of timing of a manipulation under anaesthetic (MUA) and injection of corticosteroid and local anaesthetic for the treatment of frozen shoulder has attracted little attention to date. All studies describe a period of conservative treatment before proceeding to an MUA. Delay has been associated with a poorer outcome. We present a retrospective review of a prospectively collected, singl...

291 Abstract Background : Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an important secondary cause of frozen shoulder (FS) . Aim of study : to identify the prevalence of FS among diabetic patients and it's relation to age, gender, duration and control of DM . Patients and method : 198 randomly selected diabetic patients from the attendants of Al-Hakem center of endocrinology at Al-Sader teaching hospital in Al-N...

OBJECTIVE To assess the accuracy of clinical examination by non-specialist orthopaedic surgeons of patients presenting to a diagnostic and treatment centre (DTC) for arthroscopic shoulder surgery. METHODS A retrospective review of notes of 130 consecutive shoulder arthroscopies performed at a DTC over a 10 month period. Preoperative clinical diagnosis was compared with operative arthroscopic ...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to compare range of motion, subjective outcomes, and the prevalence of reoperation in groups of frozen shoulder patients with either low or moderate/high irritability treated with the same total end range time-maximizing protocol. DESIGN A total of 36 patients were treated with the total end range time-maximizing protocol (12 patien...

Duplay (1896) was the first investigator to recognize pathologic disorders of extra-articular tissues as possible factors responsible for stiff and painful shoulders. It was his belief that an inflammatory process of the subacromial bursa was the causative agent producing this syndrome. He designated the entity ‘‘scapulohumeral periarthritis.’’ Soon this term came to include a host of heterogen...
