Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the accuracy and clinical outcome of ultrasound-guided glenohumeral joint steroid injection on adhesive capsulitis. Materials and Methods: Patients who were diagnosed as adhesive capsulitis by MRI and physical examination and did not improve their symptom with physical therapy and NSAIDS treatment more than 6 months were included in the study. Patients who showed any other shoulder pathology or history if trauma were excluded from the study. 33 patients including 15 males and 18 females were enrolled in the study, the average age being 55.1 (age 42~72). Cocktail of steroid, lidocaine, saline and contrast medium injected inside shoulder glenohumeral joint using novel approach (which we called acromioclavicular approach) under ultrasound guidance. Clinical outcome was measured through passive range of motion and VAS scoring system. Results: Based on radiographic findings, cases were classified according to the leakage of contrast medium; perfect confinement of contrast-medium inside the capsule, partial leakage of the medium and contrast-medium found at outside the joint. Total 25 cases (76%) out of 33 cases showed perfect confinement of contrast-medium inside the glenohumeral joint. Partial leakage was observed in 6 cases (18%), and contrast medium was observed outside of the glenohumeral joint in 2 cases (6%). Perfect-confinement group showed
목적: 유착성 관절낭염 환자에서 초음파를 이용한 관절와 상완 관절강 내 스테로이드 주사를 시행한 후 주사요법의 정확성이 임상적 결과에 미치는 영향을 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 임상적으로 유착성 관절낭염으로 진단받은 환자들 중 외상이 없고, 약물 치료 및 물리 치료를 받았으나 만족할 만한 호전을 보이지 않은 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 환자들은 총 33명으로 남자 15명, 여자 18명으로 평균 연령은 55.1세(42~72세)였다. 이를 대상으로 견봉 쇄골 접근법을 통해 스테로이드 칵테일 10 ml(triamcinolone 1 ml(40 mg/ml), lidocaine 4 ml(2%), normal saline 5 ml)와 조영제 5 ml (
