Prevalence and Correlation between MRI Findings and Outcome of Conservative Treatment in Primary Idiopathic Frozen Shoulder.

Objectives: Primary idiopathic frozen shoulder (FS) causes pain and stiffness in the shoulder joint. Over time, this disease causes restriction of shoulder motion. We undertook this study to evaluate possible correlation of MRI findings with outcome of conservative management in FS.

The Influence of Tibial Tuberosity-trochlear Groove Distance on Development of Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome.

Background: Tibial tuberosity-trochlear groove distance (TT-TGD) measurements play a decisive role in evaluating patellofemoral joint disorders. However, the prevalence of pathological TT-TGD among patients with patellofemoral pain remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to compare the size of TT-TGD among patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) and those with no history of patellofemoral pain.
