Clinical outcomes of arthroscopic pan-capsular release with or without entire coracohumeral ligament release for patients with frozen shoulder.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We aimed to retrospectively determine the effects of arthroscopic pan-capsular release with or without entire coracohumeral ligament (CHL) release and diabetes mellitus (DM) in patients with frozen shoulder (FS).

Methods

The study included 34 patients (20 male and 14 female patients) who underwent arthroscopic pan-capsular release without entire CHL release (group 1) and 26 patients (6 male and 20 female patients) who underwent entire CHL release for FS (group 2). Patients with a minimum of 12 months of follow-up were included, and range of motion (ROM) and the shoulder rating scale of the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) scoring system were evaluated.

Results

In group 2, external rotation and hand-behind-the-back (HBB) ROMs were significantly
