Abstract

The operative treatment of stiff shoulder using arthroscopically assisted arthrolysis is indicated in patients with persistent, symptomatic and therapy-resistant movement restrictions. Patients should be informed about relevant risks, supervised rehabilitation and possible recurrences. The surgical procedure provides a precise and controlled semicircular capsulotomy and is followed by an intensive rehabilitation program in order to minimize the risk of recurrences.

Keywords: Arthroscopic capsular release; Capsulotomy; Manipulation under anesthesia; N. axillaris; Stiff Shoulder.
