Abstract
Patients with secondary frozen shoulder following anterior dislocation were treated with manipulation under anaesthesia (MUA) and injection. Ten patients included in study. Oxford Shoulder Scores (OSS), range of motion (ROM) and need for any further treatment measured. Mean follow-up of 93 weeks. OSS and ROM improved in all patients. Three patients required repeat MUA. Two patients developed recurrent instability. Secondary frozen shoulder may be more recalcitrant. Recurrent instability is a risk following anterior shoulder dislocation. It is feasible that by performing an MUA to maximise mobility, stability may be sacrificed. It should be performed with caution.
