Zusammenfassung

Die adhäsive Kapsulitis ist eine der häufigsten Ursachen für Beschwerden mit Funktionseinschränkung der Schulter. Die genaue Pathogenese ist unklar, es wird jedoch eine abnormale Produktion von Zytokinen beschrieben, welche zu einer reaktiven Fibrosierung der Kapsel und des Rotatorenintervalls führen. Die konservative Behandlung beinhaltet neben Analgetika und physiotherapeutischer Übungsbehandlung auch den Einsatz oral oder intra-artikulär verabreichter Kortikosteroide. Diese zeigen in der Behandlung der adhäsiven Kapsulitis der Schulter eine schnelle Schmerzreduktion und Verbesserung der Schulterbeweglichkeit und sind in unseren Augen ein adäquates und komplikationsarmes Mittel zur Behandlung der idiopathischen Frozen Shoulder.

Abstract

Idiopathic adhesive capsulitis is a common illness of the shoulder leading to pain and limited range of motion. The underlying pathology remains uncertain. An abnormal production of cytokines is described, resulting in a reactive fibrosis of the capsule and the rotator interval. In the conservative treatment which includes pain killers, anti-inflammatory medication and physical therapy, the application of oral or intra-articular corticosteroids is also described. They lead to fast pain relief, improve range of motion and are, in our opinion, an adequate option in the treatment of idiopathic adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder.
