Humero-scapular periarthrosis (PH) is a painful shoulder condition causing limited movement, often affecting those aged 40-60. Recovery is common, with treatment focusing on pain relief and restoring mobility.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Rheumatology
  • Sports Medicine

Context:

  • Humero-scapular periarthrosis (PH), also known as frozen shoulder, is an idiopathic condition affecting the shoulder joint.
  • It is characterized by progressive pain and stiffness, limiting both active and passive range of motion in all directions.

Purpose:

  • To describe the clinical characteristics, epidemiology, pathogenesis, and management of humero-scapular periarthrosis.
  • To provide insights into the natural history and treatment options for this debilitating shoulder condition.

Summary:

  • PH typically progresses through three distinct phases: painful, stiff, and recovery, with an average duration of 30 months.
  • While the exact cause remains unknown, histological findings suggest inflammation and fibrosis. Diabetes mellitus is a notable comorbidity.

  • Treatment is primarily symptomatic, involving analgesics, rest, local steroid injections, and later, therapeutic exercises to improve mobility and strength.

    • Impact:

    • This information aids clinicians in diagnosing and managing PH, improving patient outcomes.
    • Understanding the condition's natural history and treatment modalities can lead to more effective patient counseling and rehabilitation strategies.
