Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Glenohumeral joint Hydrodilatation in primary idiopathic adhesive capsulitis  all participants with idiopathic adhesive capsulitis who have not responded to conservative management for 6 months, undergo ultrasound guided suprascapular nerve block followed by glenohumeral joint hydrodilatation and a structured physical rehabilitation program. The SSNB performed via an inplane technique at the suprascapular or spinoglenoid notch, utilizes 5 mL of local anesthetic with 40 mg triamcinolone to provide quick analgesia and reduce capsular pain prior to hydrodilatation a method proven to shorten symptom duration and improve pain, range of motion and disability in adhesive capsulitis. Hydrodilatation is then administered through the posterior approach with 20 to 30 mL of saline,lignocaine and 40 mg triamcinolone under ultrasound guidance designed to mechanically disrupt capsular adhesion and deliver corticosteroid therapy directly to the joint a technique validated for improving functional outcomes.  
Comparator Agent  Glenohumeral joint Hydrodilatation in secondary adhesive capsulitis due to breast cancer mangemnet  all participants with secondary adhesive capsulitis due to breast cancer mangemnet who have not responded to conservative management for 6 months, undergo ultrasound guided suprascapular nerve block followed by glenohumeral joint hydrodilatation and a structured physical rehabilitation program. The SSNB performed via an inplane technique at the suprascapular or spinoglenoid notch, utilizes 5 mL of local anesthetic with 40 mg triamcinolone to provide quick analgesia and reduce capsular pain prior to hydrodilatation a method proven to shorten symptom duration and improve pain, range of motion and disability in adhesive capsulitis.

Brief Summary  

This prospective comparative study evaluates the effectiveness of glenohumeral joint hydrodilatation in adults with adhesive capsulitis by comparing patients with primary idiopathic adhesive capsulitis and those with secondary adhesive capsulitis following breast cancer treatment after failure of conservative management. Adults aged eighteen to sixty five years with significant shoulder pain and restriction of passive range of motion will undergo image guided hydrodilatation followed by a standardized rehabilitation program. Pain relief functional improvement range of motion and quality of life will be assessed at baseline and at one three and six months after intervention. Shoulder Pain and Disability Index will be used as the primary outcome measure while pain intensity quality of life recovery timelines shoulder dyskinesia scar related restriction and rehabilitation adherence will be evaluated as secondary outcomes. The study aims to determine whether post breast cancer adhesive capsulitis shows a different pattern of recovery compared to primary adhesive capsulitis with the expectation that both groups will improve but primary adhesive capsulitis will demonstrate faster and greater functional recovery due to fewer structural and treatment related tissue changes.
