Brief Summary:
The prevalence of shoulder joint disease is high in breast cancer patients. The cause of adhesive capsulitis is not clearly identified. However, the following are known as relevant factors that are the restriction of the use of the arm after surgery, inflammation due to autoimmune action, radiation therapy, and adhesion of the surgical site. The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the effect of intrathecal steroid injection in breast cancer survivors with adhesive capsulitis.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Breast Neoplasm Shoulder Capsulitis Range of Motion Procedure: Intra-articular steroid injection Not Applicable

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Adhesive capsulitis in breast cancer survivors
Intra-articular steroid injection
Procedure: Intra-articular steroid injection
Ultrasound-guided Gleno-humeral joint steroid (Triamcinolone 40mg with 0.5% lidocaine ) injection




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Range of motion of shoulder joint [ Time Frame: Change from baseline at 3 months ]
    A goniometer is an instrument which measures the available range of motion at a joint.Flexion, Extension,Adduction,Abduction, Internal Rotation,External rotation


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in score on Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) [ Time Frame: Change from baseline at 3 months ]
    SPADI is a scale consisting of 0-10; 0 being the best and 10 being the worse pain ever; higher scores mean a worse outcome.

  2. Axillary recess capsule thickness [ Time Frame: Change from baseline at 3 months ]
    Ultrasound measurements of axillary recess capsule thickness in unilateral frozen shoulder
