“…In our study, 23.6% of frozen shoulder patients were diagnosed as having cervical spondylosis; however, the prevalence was only 15.3% in the control group. This result confirmed previous work that there is a strong association between frozen shoulder and cervical spondylosis.…”

“…A number of conditions have been reported to be associated with frozen shoulder, including the duration of postoperative intravenous infusions, increasing age, female gender and depression . Other factors that have been blamed include thyroid disease, ischemic heart disease, cervical spine disorders and diabetes . To our knowledge, few studies have been done to systematically report the overall risk factors for frozen shoulder.…”

“…This combined with osteopenia present in most patients with frozen shoulder form old age, disuse, and/or diabetes poses a significant risk of causing a humeral fracture. Although fractures are frequently listed as potential complications of MUA, few papers actually report the actual occurrence of humeral[1213] and glenoid[14] fractures. Other complications that may occur include glenohumeral dislocation, rotator cuff tearing, and nerve injuries.…”

In the management of idiopathic frozen shoulder, manipulation under anaesthesia is known to have serious potential complications including fractures and intra-articular injuries. Arthroscopy is a safer treatment modality but requires special instruments, experience, and involves added cost. The aim of this work was to study the use of miniopen Coracohumeral ligament release and manipulation of the shoulder as a safe and simple method of treating idiopathic frozen shoulder that could be performed as a quick procedure under short duration anaesthesia obtaining a significant improvement of shoulder function while avoiding complications that are feared to occur with the use of manipulation under anaesthesia. Miniopen Coracohumeral ligament release is performed through a 3-cm incision. The Coracohumeral ligament is divided, and then the shoulder is manipulated without undue force. A case series including fifteen patients (19 shoulders) with idiopathic frozen shoulder operated by this technique is described. Miniopen Coracohumeral ligament release and manipulation is a quick procedure that may be performed under short duration anaesthesia obtaining a significant improvement of shoulder function meanwhile avoiding complications that are feared to occur with the use of manipulation under anaesthesia.

“…In general, there is no difference in the outcome between diabetic and non‐diabetic patients, but in one series, it was observed that diabetic patients required more frequent repeat procedures . Hamdan and Al‐Essa also found that diabetic patients have worse results.…”

Shoulder stiffness is associated with diabetes mellitus. It is characterized by pain and restriction of active and passive range of motion. Like other complications of diabetes (e.g., arterial stiffness, pancreatic or renal fibrosis), shoulder stiffness is due to a fibrotic process. The clinical course is generally benign, but it can last for months, with remaining disabilities in the long term. Several possibilities of treatment are being used. The practitioner should be aware of this complication, its natural history, and the current treatments available in order to adequately tailor the best treatment to the patient, sometimes combining more than one option.
