| Popis: | CASE A 57-year-old male automobile mechanic presented with 1 year of atraumatic, bilateral shoulder pain and progressive loss of motion. Three months of physical therapy and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications did not offer pain relief or increase his motion. He opted for right-sided dermal allograft superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) and anterior capsular reconstruction (ACR) with subsequent left-sided SCR and subscapularis repair 3 months later. CONCLUSION At the 18 months follow-up, combined SCR/ACR was effective in restoring motion and relieving pain. Although promising, additional studies are needed to determine the efficacy of this combined procedure. |
