Current literature evaluates short to medium-term outcomes, but there is a paucity of long-term (>10 years) studies. Knowledge of long-term outcomes is also needed to evaluate whether FS or its treatment pre-disposes to other shoulder pathology in the long-term.<h4>Methods</h4>A retrospective analysis of 398 shoulders undergoing MUA for FS between Jan 1999 and Jan 2010; 240 complete datasets were obtained. Outcomes were Oxford Shoulder Score (OSS), recurrence and development of other shoulder pathology (arthritis or rotator cuff tear).<h4>Results</h4>At long-term follow-up (mean 13.2 years), 71.3% had no symptoms (OSS 4Shoulder & elbow173-180https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC10078811biostudies-literatureLong-Term Outcomes Following Manipulation Under Anaesthetic for Patients with Primary and Secondary Frozen Shoulder.PMC10078811Fairclough AWaters CDacombe PWoods DDavies TfalseLong-Term Outcomes Following Manipulation Under Anaesthetic for Patients with Primary and Secondary Frozen Shoulder.<h4>Background</h4>Frozen Shoulder (FS) is a common, debilitating condition for which manipulation under anaesthetic (MUA) is a non-invasive and effective treatment option.
