Summary
Introduction about shoulder release: The incision is very useful and easy for direct lateral exposure of the shoulder joint, to open and release the shoulder, Open subacromial decompression, impingement syndrome, rotator cuff tear, and repairing the Hill-Sachs lesion.
This study took place from January 17, 2019, to February 4, 2021. All cases were performed as a one-day surgery and under general anesthesia.
Results: The average duration of the operation was 35 minutes, and the minimum duration was 25 minutes.
A summary of shoulder release: Shoulder surgeons with moderate experience can follow. This technique is simple, safe, and satisfactory for the patient
Conditions and diseases that require shoulder release:
Shoulder impingement syndrome, rotator cuff tendinitis, adhesive capsulitis, and frozen shoulder syndrome.
Shoulder release results with this technique:
1. This procedure takes about 35 minutes, that depends on rotator cuff tear exists or not.
2. Less rehabilitation time than traditional approaches, for 6 – 8 weeks.
3. Passive physiotherapy immediately, on the next day of surgery.
4. Active physiotherapy without rotator cuff tear, after two weeks of surgery.
5. Mini cosmetic incision to the shoulder, about 4-5 cm.
6. Active physiotherapy with rotator cuff tear, after three weeks of surgery.
8. Very good patient satisfaction, after 8 weeks.
9. Restore deltoid muscle strength, about 3 months after surgery.
Ages Eligible for this approach is from 16 to 73 years old, for both sexes.
