Abstract
The term ‘frozen shoulder’ is overused and misused. In the past 2 decades we have made significant progress into understanding the pathological processes involved and we are starting to make inroads into it’s molecular biology, which may unlock future therapeutic interventions. This article outlines the clinical management of patients with frozen shoulder and appraises current basic science research. Whilst arthroscopic release is currently the mainstay of surgical managment, it is possible that in the future treatments manipulating cellular control could help us control the course of the disease in susceptible individuals.
