Adhesive capsulitis

Abstract

The signs and symptoms of adhesive capsulitis are reviewed. It is clear that this is a specific disease process distinct from those cases of "frozen shoulder." Four specific stages of the disease have been visualized at arthroscopy prior to manipulation. Stage 1 of adhesive capsulitis mimics the impingement syndrome of the shoulder.
