Abstract
To find out the effectiveness of hydraulic distention of the shoulder joint capsule with frozen shoulder. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted from 14th July 2011 to 16th April 2012. A total of 79 patients from either gender with clinical and radiological (normal radiograph) diagnosis of frozen shoulder were included in the study. The procedure was performed in OPD. Results: Out of 79 patients, 40 (50.63%) were females and 39 (48.10%) were males with a ratio of 1.07:1. The mean age of the patients was 46.58 ± 8.34 (range from 20-60 years).
