DUPUYTREN LITERATURE: FROZEN SHOULDER

The relationship between frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) and Dupuytren is different than the other Dupuytren spectrum diseases. Frozen shoulder is more common in women. Frozen shoulder is more commonly painful than the other disorders. Like Dupuytren, frozen shoulder has a commonly suspected but debatable relationship with the disorder variously referred to as causalgia, complex regional pain syndrome, reflex sympathetic dystrophy, shoulder-hand syndrome, and others. The following frozen shoulder publications profile the biology rather than treatment of frozen shoulder.
