Abstract

Adhesive capsulitis or frozen shoulder is a common problem seen by orthopaedic surgeons. It causes pain, disability and symptoms, it may last up to 2 years or longer. Diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis has been a clinical one. Treatment protocols are benign neglect, physical therapy, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, intra-articular steroid injections and surgical interventions. As for surgery, closed manipulation under anesthesia yields as nearly good result as arthroscopic release.
