Brief Summary:
Adhesive capsulitis (AC) is painful and disabling condition that is associated with a gradual loss of shoulder motion. Intra-articular steroid injection is a common treatment in the initial painful stage of AC, and its use in combination with hyaluronidase may offer increased therapeutic efficacy owing to synergistic effects. We determined the therapeutic efficiency of the co-administration of hyaluronidase in early AC by evaluating symptomatic, anthropometric, and imaging changes.
Detailed Description:
We enrolled eligible patients with primary adhesive capsulitis in the initial stage.The subjects were randomly assigned into 3 groups to receive ultrasound-guided intra-articular injections with 20 mg (group A) and 40 mg triamcinolone acetonide (group B) and 20 mg acetonide combined with hyaluronidase (group C). The outcome measures included the visual analogue scale (VAS), the shoulder disability questionnaire (SDQ), abduction and external rotation range of motion, and intra-sheath fluid (ISF) before treatment and at 2, 4, 8, and 16 weeks after treatment.
