Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of our study is to evaluate the functional and mobility outcomes in patients who have undergone arthroscopic circumferential arthrolysis of the shoulder and to find out if there are differences in the results in relation to the patient's age. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective case series of patients with idiopathic adhesive capsulitis treated by arthroscopic 360º circumferential capsulotomy in lateral position and followed for a minimum of 2 years. Range of motion (ROM), functional outcomes using the Constant Score (CS), health-related quality of life outcomes with the EuroQol Five Dimensions tool (EQ-5D), pain using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). RESULTS A total of 26 shoulders were included, 10 men (41.7%) and 14 women (58.3%), with 2 patients being bilateral. The mean age was 48.64 ± 7.5 years, and the mean follow-up was 50.2 months. Postoperative ROM improved significantly compared to preoperative ROM (p < 0.05). Shoulder forward flexion improved by 38.6° (95%CI 22.3-54.9, p < 0.01), abduction by 35.2° (95%CI 17.6-52.8, p < 0.01) and external rotation by 21.9° (95%CI 12.8-30.9, p < 0.01 p < 0.01). Median internal rotation improved from buttock to T12 (p < 0.01). The mean improvement in CS was 54.3 ± 24.4 points (p < 0.01). The EQ-5D and VAS scores at the end of follow-up were 0.73 ± 0.23 and 2.73 ± 2.55, respectively. There were no statistical differences between young patients and patients aged 50 years or older in ROM or functional results. CONCLUSIONS Patient age did not affect outcomes significantly, with patients older than 50 years showing similar results to younger patients.

Arthroscopic capsular release is more effective in pain relief than conservative treatment in patients with frozen shoulder. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:145. [PMID: 38365741 PMCID: PMC10870563 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07275-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Frozen shoulder is a common medical condition, but the ideal therapeutic method is yet to be determined. Our aim was to analyze the pain-relieving effect of different treatment options used for the management of this disease. METHODS Medical records of 59 patients (22 male, 37 female, average age: 55.5 years ±9.9) with early stage primary frozen shoulder were evaluated, their demographic data, physical examination, concomitant diseases and treatment specific data were registered. Life quality and the level of pain were assessed using the Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS) and Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Different treatment modalities and their effect on pain relief were recorded. Any existing correlation between life quality, pain and demographic data, concomitant diseases or the therapeutic method used was investigated. RESULTS The level of pain measured on NRS improved from 7.9 ± 1.6 to 1.9 ± 2.2. The most effective therapeutic method in terms of pain relief was surgery, followed by physiotherapy and intraarticular steroid injection (NRS score after treatment: 2 - p < 0.0001; 3.3 - p < 0.0001; 4.9 - p < 0.0001, respectively). Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) did not reduce pain significantly. OSS improved from 24 to 43.6 and was not affected by the investigated variables, time to recovery was not influenced by the demographic data, the type of treatment or concomitant diseases. CONCLUSIONS Arthroscopic capsular release, physiotherapy and intraarticular steroid injection outperformed physical therapy and NSAID treatment in terms of pain relief. Despite of slight but persistent post-therapeutic pain found in half of the cases, treatment was considered satisfactory by the patients. Nor patient specific neither therapy specific data had a significant effect on the course of the disease.

Abstract
The clinical picture of "frozen shoulder" is still poorly understood. In order to present the current state of knowledge on aetiology, diagnosis, and treatment, and to provide recommendations for the professional groups involved, a working group was formed by the DGOU and the DVSE to create a German language, evidence-based guideline, which was published in 2022 by the AWMF. The following summarises the development and the most important results.

Abstract
Background Adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder is a painful and debilitating condition. While the majority of patients improve with conservative treatment, those who do not improve require surgery such as arthroscopic capsular release (ACR) for symptom relief. However, there is limited literature regarding the optimal timeframe to proceed with surgery. Methods This retrospective cohort evaluated 134 Hispanic patients who underwent ACR for the treatment of adhesive capsulitis. Patients were divided into an early and a delayed treatment group that included all patients. Patients were then divided into diabetic and idiopathic subgroups. Early vs. delayed treatment outcomes (forward flexion, external rotation, Visual Analog Scale pain scores, and recurrence requiring reoperation) were assessed in all patients and in each subgroup. Results No statistically significant differences were found between the early and delayed release groups in postoperative forward flexion, external rotation, pain intensity scores, and recurrence requiring reoperation at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months of follow-up in the all-patient group. In the idiopathic frozen shoulder subgroup, no significant differences were observed in postoperative forward flexion, external rotation, pain intensity scores, and recurrence requiring reoperation at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months of follow-up. In the diabetic frozen shoulder subgroup, no significant differences were observed in postoperative forward flexion, external rotation, pain intensity scores, and recurrence requiring reoperation at 1 month and 6 months of follow-up visits. Conclusions There was no difference in outcomes following ACR for adhesive capsulitis between patients who underwent early release vs. delayed release. There were no significant differences in outcomes between early and delayed arthroscopic release in patients with a history of diabetes mellitus.

One-stage rotator cuff repair in stiff shoulders shows comparable range of motion, clinical outcome and retear rates to non-stiff shoulders: a systematic review. J Orthop Surg Res 2023; 18:613. [PMID: 37608386 PMCID: PMC10464261 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-04104-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/15/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND One-stage treatment involving rotator cuff repair and shoulder capsule release is mainly used to treat patients with rotator cuff tears (RCTs) and concomitant shoulder stiffness. Despite the increasing attention to the efficacy and safety of one-stage treatment, controversy still remains. Therefore, this systematic review aims to summarize the indications, operation procedure and rehabilitation protocol, and compare the range of motions (ROMs), functional outcomes and retear rates of one-stage treatment for RCTs in stiff shoulders and non-stiff shoulders. METHODS Multiple databases (PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase and MEDLINE) were searched for studies that investigated outcomes after one-stage treatment for RCTs concomitant with shoulder stiffness compared with rotator cuff repair for RCTs alone, according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses criteria. Descriptive statistics, including range of motion, patient-reported outcome and retear rate, are presented without meta-analysis due to the heterogeneity and low levels of evidence. RESULTS A total of 9 cohort studies were included, with 305 patients treated with one-stage treatment involving rotator cuff repair and simultaneous shoulder capsular release and 1059 patients treated with rotator cuff repair alone. Patients in both groups had significant symptom improvement and functional recovery after the one-stage treatment for the stiffness group and standard repair for the non-stiffness group, and most patients could return to normal life and work within 6 months after the operation. The retear rate in the one-stage treatment group was not higher than that in the rotator cuff repair group. No statistically significant differences between the two groups were observed in terms of range of motion and patient-reported outcomes in the vast majority of studies at the final follow-up, including the visual analog scale for pain, the Constant score, the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, the University of California Los Angeles Shoulder Score, the Oxford shoulder score and the Simple Shoulder Test. CONCLUSION One-stage treatment for RCTs in stiff shoulders provides comparable ROM and patient-reported clinical outcomes as rotator cuff repair for non-stiff RCTs. In addition, the rate of postoperative retear in stiff shoulder treated with one-stage treatment was not higher than in non-stiff shoulders.

Abstract
Background and Aims Hydrodistension (HD) and suprascapular nerve block (SSNB) have been shown to reduce pain and improve shoulder function in frozen shoulder (FS). The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of HD and SSNB in the treatment of idiopathic FS. Material and Methods This was a prospective observational study. A total of 65 patients with FS were treated with SSNB or HD. The functional outcome was evaluated by Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) score and active shoulder range of motion (ROM) measured at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks. Parametric data were analyzed using an independent sample T-test. Nonparametric data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test and Wilcoxon test. A P value less than 0.05 was considered significant. Result At the end of 24 weeks, the two-group improved significantly from the baseline and the improvement was comparable between the two groups. ROM also improved significantly in both groups. At 2nd week, SPADI score was significantly less in SSNB group (P < 0.05). About 43% of patients considered HD extremely painful. Conclusion Both HD and SSNB are almost equally effective in reducing pain and improving shoulder function. However, SSNB leads to a faster improvement.

Abstract
People with diabetes may experience worse outcomes from frozen shoulder than those without diabetes; however, the certainty in evidence was moderate to low. If high-quality studies can confirm the findings of this review, then clinicians should monitor patients with frozen shoulder with diabetes more closely and offer further treatment if pain or lack of function persists long-term.
Objective To summarize evidence from longitudinal observational studies to determine whether diabetes (types 1 and 2) is associated with the course of symptoms in people with frozen shoulder. Data Sources A systematic literature search of 11 bibliographic databases (published through June 2021), reference screening, and emailing professional contacts. Study Selection Studies were selected if they had a longitudinal observational design that included people diagnosed with frozen shoulder at baseline and compared outcomes at follow-up (>2wk) among those with and without diabetes at baseline. Data Extraction Data extraction was completed by 1 reviewer using a predefined extraction sheet and was checked by another reviewer. Two reviewers independently judged risk of bias using the Quality in Prognostic Factor Studies tool. Data Synthesis A narrative synthesis, including inspection of forest plots and use of the prognostic factor Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations framework. Twenty-eight studies satisfied the inclusion criteria. Seven studies were judged to be at a moderate risk of bias and 21 at a high risk of bias. Diabetes was associated with worse multidimensional clinical scores (moderate certainty in evidence), worse pain (low certainty in evidence), and worse range of motion (very low certainty in evidence). Conclusions This review provides preliminary evidence to suggest that people with diabetes may experience worse outcomes from frozen shoulder than those without diabetes. If high-quality studies can confirm the findings of this review, then clinicians should monitor patients with frozen shoulder with diabetes more closely and offer further treatment if pain or lack of function persists long-term.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persisting shoulder stiffness adversely affects quality of life by causing pain and motion restrictions especially in patients with diabetes. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of arthroscopic capsular release in patients with idiopathic shoulder stiffness. METHOD A literature search was conducted in electronic databases and studies were selected by following precise eligibility criteria. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed to estimate the changes at latest follow-up in scores of the Constant, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), and University of California at Los Angelis (UCLA) scales, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and shoulder range of motion. RESULTS Nineteen studies were included. The follow-up duration was 42 months [95% confidence interval (CI): 32, 51]. Improvements in scores of the Constant, ASES, UCLA scales, and VAS were 48.3 [95% CI: 38.0, 58.6], 44.6 [95% CI: 24.6, 64.6], 19.3 [95% CI: 16.6, 22.0], and -6.1 [95% CI: -6.9, -5.4] respectively (P< 0.05 all). Improvements in the shoulder range of motion were: abduction 82.0 [95% CI: 65.0, 98.9]; forward flexion 75.9 [95% CI: 59.7, 92.1]; external rotation 43.2 [95% CI: 37.5, 49.0]; and internal rotation 25.4 [95% CI: 15.2, 35.5] degrees; P< 0.05 all). CONCLUSION Arthroscopic capsular release effectively improves shoulder function in patients with idiopathic shoulder stiffness.

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to provide consensus regarding the degree of optimal extended arthroscopic capsular release in addition to a standard rotator interval release in the treatment of idiopathic frozen shoulder. MATERIALS AND METHODS The systematic review was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systemic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. All articles that reported the outcomes of capsular release in idiopathic frozen shoulder were included. A total of 18 articles with 629 patients and 811 shoulders were included. Clinical outcomes analysed include differences between pre and postoperative ranges of motion (ROM), Visual Analog Score (VAS) reduction, Simple Shoulder Test (SST) scores and Constant scores. Patients were grouped by technique: anterior-inferior capsular release (Group 1), anterior-inferior-posterior capsular release (Group 2), and 360-degree capsular release (Group 3) at follow up points 3,6 and 12 months. RESULTS Comparing ROM, Group 1 had greater early abduction (p<0.01), early (p<0.01) and overall external rotation (p<0.01) than Group 2, as well as greater early flexion (p<0.01), early abduction (p<0.01), early (p<0.01) and overall internal rotation (p<0.01) than Group 3. Group 2 had greater early (p=0.03) and overall flexion (p<0.01) than Group 1, as well as greater early (p<0.01) and overall flexion (p<0.01), early abduction (p<0.01) and early internal rotation (p<0.01) than Group 3. Group 3 had greater overall flexion (p<0.01) than Group 1 and greater overall external rotation (p<0.01) than Group 2. Comparing VAS scores, the less extensive releases saw the greatest significant postoperative reduction. Group 2 had greater mean improvements in postoperative Constant scores than Group 1 (p<0.01) and Group 3 (p<0.01), while SST scores were significantly higher in Group 1 (p<0.01). CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis suggests that less extensive releases may result in better functional and pain scores. Addition of a posterior release offers increased early internal rotation, which was not sustained over time, but provides early and sustained flexion improvements. A complete 360 release may not provide any further benefit. There were no significant differences in the complication rates amongst the 3 techniques.

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review evaluated and compared the effectiveness of non-surgical and surgical interventions for managing shoulder pain in patients with diabetes. METHODS PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, EMBASE, Sport Discus, and Cochrane library were searched for studies published in the last 20 years. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) and cohort studies that assessed shoulder pain in patients with diabetes and implemented one or a combination of non-surgical and surgical interventions were eligible for inclusion. The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Structured Effectiveness Quality Evaluation Scale (SEQES) tool. Data extracted from the eligible studies included study design, patient characteristics, duration of symptoms, type of interventions, outcome measures used to assess pain, follow-up intervals, and research findings. RESULTS A narrative synthesis with effect sizes (ES) or between-group differences was conducted. A total of 25 (14 non-surgical and 11 surgical) studies met the inclusion criteria. Six studies addressed physiotherapeutic interventions (three RCTs and three cohorts - ES = 0.07-1.3), three studies assessed the effect of steroid injections (two RCTs and one cohort - ES = 0.2-0.4), two cohorts addressed arthrographic capsular distension (between-group difference of 1.1 on Visual Analogue Scale), two cohorts addressed MUA, and one RCT addressed suprascapular nerve block (ES = 1-6). For the surgical studies, six cohorts addressed arthroscopic capsular release (ES = 0.2), three cohorts addressed arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ES = 0.05-0.5), and one cohort addressed arthroplasty (ES = 0.3). CONCLUSION Moderate- to very-low-quality evidence suggests large effects of physiotherapy modalities plus exercise and suprascapular nerve block, and trivial to small effects for surgical interventions for improving shoulder pain in patients with diabetes. Future well-designed studies are needed to provide accurate estimates of the true effects of these interventions on improving shoulder pain in patients with diabetes.Implications For RehabilitationShoulder pain may lead to disability in patients with diabetes.We recommend the use of physiotherapy interventions to reduce shoulder pain.Corticosteroid injections are recommended for short-term shoulder pain relief.

Abstract
Background: Arthroscopic capsular release (ACR) for the treatment of adhesive capsulitis of the
shoulder can be performed in either the beach-chair (BC) or lateral decubitus (LD)
position. Purpose: To determine the clinical outcomes and recurrence rates after ACR in the BC versus LD
position. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: A systematic review using PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and
Meta-Analyses) guidelines was performed by searching PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane
Library databases for studies reporting clinical outcomes of patients undergoing ACR in
either the BC or LD position. All English-language literature from 1990 through 2017
reporting on clinical outcomes after ACR with a minimum 3-month follow-up were reviewed
by 2 independent reviewers. Recurrence rates, range of motion (ROM) results, and
patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores were collected. Study methodological quality was
evaluated using the modified Coleman Methodology Score (MCMS). Results: A total of 30 studies (3 level 1 evidence, 2 level 2 evidence, 4 level 3 evidence, 21
level 4 evidence) including 665 shoulders undergoing ACR in the BC position (38.1% male;
mean age, 52.0 ± 3.9 years; mean follow-up, 35.4 ± 18.4 months) and 603 shoulders in the
LD position (41.8% male; mean age, 53.0 ± 2.3 years; mean follow-up, 37.2 ± 16.8 months)
were included. There were no significant differences in overall mean recurrence rates
between groups (BC, 2.5%; LD, 2.4%; P = .81) or in any PRO scores
between groups (P > .05). There were no significant differences in
improvement in ROM between groups, including external rotation at the side (BC, 36.4°;
LD, 42.8°; P = .91), forward flexion (BC, 64.4°; LD, 79.3°;
P = .73), abduction (BC, 77.8°; LD, 81.5°; P = .82),
or internal rotation in 90° of abduction (BC, 40.8°; LD, 45.5°; P =
.70). Significantly more patients in the BC group (91.6%) underwent concomitant
manipulation than in the LD group (63%) (P < .0001). There were
significantly more patients with diabetes in the LD group (22.4%) versus the BC group
(9.6%) (P < .0001). Conclusion: Low rates of recurrent shoulder stiffness and excellent improvements in ROM can be
achieved after ACR in either the LD or BC position. Concomitant manipulation under
anesthesia is performed more frequently in the BC position compared with the LD
position.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the effect of timing of arthroscopic release and manipulation under anesthesia for frozen shoulder in patients with diabetes and non-diabetes. Methods One hundred and twenty-seven patients with frozen shoulder were included in the study. Each patient was assigned to: 1) one of four groups according to the duration from symptom onset to surgery (group A: ≤3 months; group B: 3–6 months; group C: 6–12 months; group D: >12 months), 2) diabetic or nondiabetic group. The outcomes were measured by shoulder range of motion (ROM), Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder score, the period of pain relief, overall duration of disease, and satisfaction. Results All the patients got great improvement in shoulder ROM (P < .0001) after arthroscopic surgery, but there was no statistical difference in the pre-operative and post-operative shoulder ROM between the four groups and between diabetic and nondiabetic groups. The overall duration of disease was mean 55.4~68.7 weeks, which demonstrated much shorter disease course compared with nature course. Improvement were also seen in shoulder ROM at one week to one month, and the period of total pain relief was at a mean time of 3.7 to 3.8 weeks. There were higher ASES Shoulder score in group B than in group C (P = 0.02) and higher DASH score in diabetic group in short term follow-up. Conclusions Arthroscopic release provides effective and rapid improvements to shoulder motion and function, unrelated to the timing of surgery, in patients with frozen shoulder. The diabetic patients do not have functional outcomes as good as the nondiabetic patient at short-term follow-up.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetic patients have been known to have a higher incidence of frozen shoulder. Arthroscopic capsular release has been described for diabetic frozen shoulder refractory to non-surgical treatment. We describe our single-surgeon experience of this procedure done in Asian patients presenting with diabetic frozen shoulder. RESULTS Data were prospectively collected from 25 patients from 2007 to 2008, who underwent arthroscopic capsular release for frozen shoulder with diabetes mellitus. This included the University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA) Shoulder Score by an independent observer. Mean follow-up duration was 44.3 ± 22 months with the age of 57.3 ± 10.9 years at the time of surgery. Mean duration of symptoms prior to surgery was 8.9 ± 7.5 months. Ten right shoulders and 15 left shoulders were operated on. Arthroscopic capsular release was performed in the beach chair position with the aid of a 90° electrocautery hook, from the rotator interval to posterior capsule. Significant improvement was observed in the UCLA scores post-operatively (preoperative total score 15.8 ± 3.6 vs. post-operative 33.3 ± 2.5, p < 0.00), including all domains of pain (3.9 ± 1.8 vs. 9.4 ± 0.9, p < 0.00), function (4.8 ± 1.7 vs. 9.4 ± 1.4, p < 0.00), active forward flexion (2.6 ± 0.7 vs. 4.6 ± 0.6, p < 0.00) and satisfaction (0.0 ± 0.0 vs. 5.0 ± 0.0, p < 0.00). No significant correlation between duration of symptoms and UCLA scores. Significant improvement was observed in forward flexion (preoperative 100.4 ± 18.8° vs. post-operative 157.6 ± 15.9°, p < 0.00) and external rotation (preoperative 14.4 ± 6.34° vs. post-operative 63.8 ± 8.3°, p < 0.00). Although the duration of symptoms correlated significantly with preoperative forward flexion ( r = 0.443 and p < 0.027), there was no significant correlation with post-operative forward flexion ( r = 0.023 and p < 0.91). No axillary nerve palsy observed. CONCLUSION The diabetic frozen shoulder can be treated favourably with arthroscopic capsular release and the duration of symptoms prior to surgery does not affect the outcomes.

Comparison of outcomes following arthroscopic capsular release for idiopathic, diabetic and secondary shoulder adhesive capsulitis: A Systematic Review. Orthop Traumatol Surg Res 2019; 105:839-846. [PMID: 31202716 DOI: 10.1016/j.otsr.2019.02.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2018] [Revised: 12/24/2018] [Accepted: 02/07/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Arthroscopic capsular release for adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder is a treatment option. The present study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes following arthroscopic capsular release among idiopathic, diabetic and secondary adhesive capsulitis. HYPOTHESIS Different aetiological groups yield variable outcomes following arthroscopic capsular release. MATERIALS AND METHODS A literature search was performed using MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL and the Cochrane Database in April 2017. Comparative studies that reported range of motion or functional outcomes following arthroscopic capsular release in patients with adhesive capsulitis were included. A systematic review of the studies was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines. RESULTS Six studies met the eligibility criteria. The overall population included 463 patients; 203 idiopathic, 61 diabetic and 199 secondary cases. Of four studies comparing idiopathic and diabetic patients, three reported significantly worse range of movement and function in the diabetic group at various follow up points. No significant difference in function and motion was reported between the idiopathic and secondary groups. Recurrent pain was highest in diabetic patients (26%) compared to idiopathic groups (0%) and the secondary group had a higher rate of revision surgery when compared to the idiopathic group (8.1% vs. 2.4%) DISCUSSION: Arthroscopic capsular release has a high success rate regardless of the underlying aetiology. However, diabetic patients are reported to have more residual pain, reduced motion and inferior function compared to idiopathic cases. The rate of revision capsular release is higher among patients with post-surgical adhesive capsulitis when compared to idiopathic cases. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV, systematic review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frozen shoulder is a painful joint disease. Patients with diabetes seem to have worse clinical symptoms and surgery in this patient population is believed to be more common.The objective postoperative evaluation indicates inferior results when surgically treating diabetics, but no previous studies have investigated exclusively the subjective patient satisfaction with arthroscopic capsular release. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 93 patients were included. All had persistent symptoms despite conservative treatment for at least six months. The patients were retrospectively divided into two groups based on diabetes status: Group 1 consisted of patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes (18) and group 2 consisted of the remaining patients (75). Evaluation was performed prior to arthroscopic capsular release and at six months follow-up. The web-based questionnaire consisted of two different evaluation forms: The Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS) and a visual quality scale (VQS). RESULTS Both groups reported a statistically significant improvement in both evaluations. OSS in group 1 improved by 11.5 [95% CI: 6.2 ; 16.4] and by 15.8 [95% CI: 13.6 ; 17.9] in group 2. The improvement was more pronounced in group 2, though not statistically significant (p = 0.09). The VQS improved 39.6 in group 1 and 44.5 in group 2, (p = 0.50). CONCLUSION Diabetic and non-diabetic patients reported equal symptom relief after arthroscopic capsular release of frozen shoulder when selected for operation without considering diabetic status. We will continue to select patients for arthroscopic release without differences in preoperative counseling between diabetics and non-diabetics.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare clinical outcome and rotator cuff integrity after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) in patients with and without diabetes mellitus. METHODS This retrospective study involved 264 consecutive patients who underwent ARCR from 2012 to 2015. Inclusion criteria were a medium or large-sized tear and a minimum of 1-year follow-up. Clinical outcome measures included range of motion (ROM) and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) and University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) scores preoperatively and at final follow-up. Rotator cuff retear was evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging at 3 months post-surgery and final follow-up. Diabetic patients with poor control were pre-operatively hospitalized for intensive diabetic control. RESULTS Our inclusion criteria were met by 30 diabetic patients and 126 non-diabetic patients. Demographic data were not significantly different between the groups, except body mass index (p = 0.021). Preoperative JOA and UCLA scores of the diabetic patients were significantly lower than those of the non-diabetic patients (p < 0.001, and p = 0.006, respectively); however, the scores at final follow-up were not different. ROM was significantly restricted in the diabetic patients before surgery (forward flexion, abduction, internal rotation: p < 0.001, external rotation: p = 0.035), but at the final follow-up, there was no significant difference except for internal rotation (p = 0.005). The retear rate in diabetic patients (23.3%) was not significantly different from that in non-diabetic patients (15.1%). CONCLUSIONS Diabetic patients who had good perioperative glycemic control showed clinical and structural outcomes comparable to non-diabetic patients after ARCR. Intensive perioperative glycemic control and patient education are recommended for preoperative uncontrolled diabetic patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
Shoulder stiffness affects a diverse population of patients suffering a decrease in function and shoulder pain. Arthroscopic management of this debilitating spectrum of pathology is a safe and effective course of action in cases recalcitrant to nonoperative therapy. Arthroscopic management of the stiff shoulder has been reported to be effective in the treatment of stiffness due to adhesive capsulitis, birth palsy, stiffness in the setting of rotator cuff tears, and osteoarthritis in the posttraumatic patient, in the postoperative patient, and in the throwing athlete. Arthroscopic management is most effective in treating the stiff shoulder in the setting of adhesive capsulitis recalcitrant to nonoperative therapy or posttraumatic stiffness. Results are more guarded in the treatment of postoperative stiffness. Excessive force and trauma to the shoulder, including fracture of the humerus, can be avoided with a 360[degrees] capsular release for shoulder stiffness rather than manipulation under anesthesia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Currently, no therapeutic intervention is universally accepted, and the most effective management for restoring motion and diminishing pain in patients with shoulder stiffness has yet to be defined. This systematic review analyses outcomes of conservative and surgical interventions to treat shoulder stiffness. SOURCE OF DATA A systematic review of literature according to the PRISMA guidelines was performed. A comprehensive search of PubMed, Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane, Embase, Ovid and Google Scholar databases using various combinations of the keywords 'shoulder', 'shoulder stiffness', 'stiff shoulder', 'conservative', since inception of databases to June 2018 was performed. AREAS OF AGREEMENT Shoulder stiffness could be treated with conservative means including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, corticosteroid injections, or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, manipulation under anaesthesia, and arthroscopic capsular release. AREAS OF CONTROVERSY No therapeutic intervention is universally accepted, and the most effective management to restore motion and diminish pain in patients with shoulder stiffness has yet to be defined. GROWING POINTS The rate of failure after treatment for stiff shoulder is higher in the surgical group than in the conservative group. AREAS TIMELY FOR DEVELOPING RESEARCH There is insufficient evidence to establish whether surgical or conservative management is the best choice to manage shoulder stiffness. Prospective, randomized studies are needed to establish whether surgical or conservative management produce a clinically relevant difference in functional outcome.

Abstract
Frozen shoulder causes significant functional disability and pain in a population group constituted by patients who are often middle-aged and working. Frozen shoulder remains poorly understood. The available literature is limited and often prone to bias. A rapid, non-surgical and cost-effective treatment that reduces pain and restores function is an attractive option. Hydrodilatation is a potential first-line treatment of frozen shoulder in secondary care.

Objective To assess the effectiveness of arthroscopic capsular release to treat primary severe frozen shoulder through trans cuff portal. Methods Between June 2012 and January 2015, 28 patients with primary severe frozen shoulder were enrolled in the study. There were 8 males and 20 females with an average age of 57 years (range, 42-81 years). The left shoulder was involved in 16 cases and the right one in 12 cases. The mean disease duration was 11 months (range, 7-21 months). Six patients had diabetes. All patients underwent arthroscopic capsular release by trans cuff portal. The range of motion (ROM) of the shoulder were measured at preoperation and at 6 weeks and 24 months after operation; the scores of American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) and visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the shoulder function and pain. Results Primary healing of incision was obtained, and no complications of infection, shoulder instability, and nerve injury were found. All patients were followed up 24 months. Pain of the shoulder was obviously relieved; VAS score was significantly lower at 6 weeks and 24 months after operation than preoperation ( P<0.05), and at 24 months than 6 weeks ( P<0.05). ROM of the shoulder and ASES score at 6 weeks and 24 months after operation were significantly increased when compared with preoperative ones ( P<0.05); significant difference was found in ROM of forward flexion and external rotation and the ASES score between at 6 weeks and 24 months ( P<0.05). And internal rotation in-creased from trochanter (9 cases), hip (6 cases), sacrum (7 cases), and L 4 vertebral level (6 cases) before operation to the T 12-T 6 vertebral level at 6 weeks and 24 months after operation, which were close to normal side. Conclusion Arthroscopic capsular release through trans cuff portal is an effective and safe management for primary severe frozen shoulder.

Abstract
Frozen shoulder is a chronic condition characterized by pain in the shoulder and restriction of movements in all directions. Some patients are left with long-term limitation of shoulder joint activity with various severities, which results in reduced quality of life. Currently, there is a paucity of literature on the molecular biology of frozen shoulder, and the molecular biological mechanism for periarthritis-induced limitation of shoulder joint movements remains unclear. Research in this field is focused on inflammation and cytokines associated with fibrosis. Repeated investigations confirmed alterations of specified inflammatory mediators and fibrosis-associated cytokines, which might be involved in the pathogenesis of frozen shoulder by causing structural changes of the shoulder joint and eventually the limitation of shoulder movements. The aim of this article is to review studies on molecular biology of frozen shoulder and provide a reference for subsequent research, treatment, and development of new drugs.

Abstract
Adhesive shoulder capsulitis, or arthrofibrosis, describes a pathological process in which the body forms excessive scar tissue or adhesions across the glenohumeral joint, leading to pain, stiffness and dysfunction. It is a debilitating condition that can occur spontaneously (primary or idiopathic adhesive capsulitis) or following shoulder surgery or trauma (secondary adhesive capsulitis). Here, we review the pathophysiology of adhesive shoulder capsulitis, highlighting its clinical presentation, natural history, risk factors, pathoanatomy and pathogenesis. Both current non-operative and operative treatments for adhesive capsulitis are described, and evidence-based studies are presented in support for or against each corresponding treatment. Finally, the review also provides an update on the gene expression profile of adhesive capsulitis and how this new understanding can help facilitate development of novel pharmacological therapies.

Abstract
Objective To determine whether frozen shoulder heals equally well in patients with and without diabetes and whether dependency on insulin affects the outcome. Methods We retrospectively examined 178 patients with idiopathic frozen shoulder; 27 patients had diabetes. We evaluated range of motion, pain, and functional results. The mean follow-up was 9.7 years (SD, 7.1 years). Results In the presence of frozen shoulder, range of motion did not differ between patients with and without diabetes. At follow-up, range of motion in all directions of both the affected and unaffected shoulders of patients with diabetes was inferior to that of patients without diabetes. Among patients with diabetes, range of motion of the once-frozen shoulder reached the level of the unaffected shoulder. Patients with and without diabetes experienced similar pain except during exertion. The Constant–Murley score was not significantly different between the two groups, and insulin dependency did not lead to worse outcomes. Conclusion Frozen shoulder heals well in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
The present study found a slower functional recovery after arthroscopic capsular release in patients with refractory frozen shoulder and diabetes. However, the study has some limitations: retrospective design, small study groups, and incomplete assessments. To better understand the disease and its proper treatment, one has to distinguish between idiopathic and secondary frozen shoulder. At present, little is known about both types of frozen shoulder, and randomized controlled trials are needed to compare surgical intervention with a conservative treatment at different stages of the disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare serial clinical outcomes after arthroscopic treatment of refractory frozen shoulder with and without diabetes. METHODS Seventeen patients with diabetic frozen shoulder (diabetes group) and 20 patients with idiopathic frozen shoulder (idiopathic group) were included. The mean follow-up period was 48.4 ± 15.8 months. Visual analog scale pain score; University of California, Los Angeles score; American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score; and range of motion were evaluated preoperatively; at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery; and at the final follow-up examination. RESULTS Both groups showed significant improvement in all clinical scores and range of motion during the serial follow-up periods (P < .001). There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in any of the assessed clinical scores, except the mean American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score in the diabetes group was significantly lower than that in the idiopathic group at 12 months after surgery (77.7 v 88.8, P = .025). In the diabetes group, mean forward flexion was significantly lower than that in the idiopathic group at 3 months (140.0° v 151.5°, P = .011) and 6 months (152.2° v 161.8°, P = .045) after surgery. Mean external rotation was significantly lower than that in the idiopathic group at 6 months after surgery (43.3° v 55.0°, P = .021). Mean internal rotation was significantly lower than that in the idiopathic group at 6 months (13.7 v 11.7, P = .006) and 12 months (12.2 v 9.9, P = .041) after surgery. There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in any assessed outcomes at the final follow-up examination. CONCLUSIONS These results provide supportive evidence suggesting that the diabetes group had slower postoperative functional recovery until 12 months postoperatively, although arthroscopic capsular release for refractory frozen shoulder with and without diabetes yielded satisfactory clinical outcomes at the final follow-up examination. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND adhesive capsulitis (AC) results in progressive painful restriction in range of movement and can reduce function and quality of life. Whilst it has been associated with diabetes mellitus (DM), there is considerable variation in the reported prevalence of AC in the diabetic population. The aim of this study is to determine through meta-analysis the prevalence of AC in DM and examine whether it is influenced by type of DM or insulin therapy. We also aim to further establish the prevalence of DM in patients presenting with AC. METHODS we conducted a literature search for terms regarding AC and DM on Embase and Pubmed NCBI. RESULTS of 5411 articles identified, 18 were selected. Meta-analysis showed that patients with DM were 5 (95% CI 3.2-7.7) times more likely than controls to have AC. The overall prevalence of AC in DM was estimated at 13.4% (95% CI 10.2-17.2%). Comparison of prevalence in patients on insulin vs other treatments showed no significant difference between the two. Meta-analysis estimated the prevalence of DM in AC at 30% (95% CI 24-37%). CONCLUSION to our knowledge this is the first meta-analysis to estimate the overall prevalence of diabetes in a population with AC. A high prevalence of AC exists in DM and equally a high prevalence of DM is present in AC. Screening for DM should be considered in patients presenting with AC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In light of recent interest in the cost-effectiveness of the treatment options available for frozen shoulder, we aimed to determine the results of limited anterior capsular release and controlled manipulation under anaesthesia (MUA) in the treatment of primary frozen shoulder in terms of patient-related outcomes measure, range of motion and re-intervention rates. METHODS This single-surgeon series included prospectively collected data on all patients undergoing capsular release with MUA from March 2011 until June 2013, with a minimum follow-up of 6 months from the index procedure. Outcome measures included pre- and postoperative Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS), range of motion and need for re-intervention. RESULTS Fifty-four procedures were performed in 52 patients. Mean age 50 years (range 42 years to 59 years); male: female ratio = 11: 41. There was a highly statistically significant improvement in both pain and function modules of the OSS (p < 0.005) and range of motion (p < 0.005) at 6 months. The median postoperative score was 41 from a maximum of 48 points, with an average mean improvement of 24 points. Seventeen patients were diabetics. There was no significant difference in pre-operative and postoperative OSS or range of motion between the diabetic group and the non-diabetic groups. No patients required surgical re-intervention. CONCLUSIONS A combination of limited capsular release and MUA for the treatment of primary frozen shoulder is a safe and effective procedure resulting in marked improvement in pain, function and range of motion.
