Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Background: In addition to idiopathic shoulder stiffness, secondary shoulder stiffness in particular is often associated with extra-articular subacromial adhesions between the rotator cuff and the surrounding anatomical structures. Objective: The aim of this article is to present clinical results and complications as well as the surgical technique of extra-articular release in the context of secondary shoulder stiffness. Material and Methods: Selective review of the literature and presentation of own clinical experience. Results: Intra-articular and extra-articular release are related to a high patient satisfaction and an improved range of motion. Exact knowledge of the extra-articular anatomy is necessary to prevent iatrogenic lesions of vessels, nerves and the rotator cuff. Compared to patients with a primary stiff shoulder, patients suffering from posttraumatic stiff shoulder benefit more from arthroscopic interventions with intracapsular and extracapsular release. Conclusion: Restrictions in range of motion of the shoulder can be related to extra-articular adhesions. These adhesions need to be specifically addressed during arthroscopic treatment of stiff shoulders.
