Abstract
This paper summarizes the experience of treating 59 patients with adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder joint. The observation period was 2 years. Rationale of choosing a method of treatment and a methodology of conservative treatment of adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder joint by intra-articular injection of corticosteroids in the projection of the anterior-upper arthroscopic access and subsequent exercise therapy and physical rehabilitation are described. As a result of the study, it was found that in 94% of patients treated for adhesive capsulitis there was a complete relief of adhesive capsulitis symptoms after 3 months from the start of the treatment, a full range of motion was achieved.
Keywords: adhesive capsulitis, frozen shoulder, contracture, capsular release.
