Abstract

Objectives

To evaluate the results of patients undergoing arthroscopic surgical treatment for snapping scapula syndrome.

Methods

This is a retrospective study of 11 patients undergoing scapulothoracic arthroscopy for the treatment of snapping scapula syndrome. The study included patients with clinical diagnosis of snapping scapula syndrome who did not show pain improvement after at least six months of physical therapy. Patients were assessed using the DASH, UCLA, visual analogue pain assessment (VAS), and Short-Form 36 (SF36) scores.

Results

The mean age at surgery was 38.4 years (21–48). The mean duration of symptoms before surgery was 2.8 years (range 6 months to 6 years). The mean follow-up duration was 12 months (range: 6.4–28). The mean postoperative scores were: DASH, 7.8 points; VAS, 1.5 points, being ten cases (90%) of mild pain and one case (10%) of moderate pain; UCLA, 32; and SF-36, 79.47.

Conclusions

The arthroscopic approach for the treatment of snapping scapula syndrome presents excellent functional results.

肩胛骨折断综合征:关节镜手术治疗

目的评价关节镜下手术治疗肩胛骨折断综合征的疗效。方法对11例经肩胛骨镜治疗肩胛骨折断综合征的患者进行回顾性研究。该研究包括临床诊断为肩胛骨断裂综合征的患者，他们在至少六个月的物理治疗后没有表现出疼痛的改善。采用DASH、UCLA、视觉模拟疼痛评估(VAS)和简易36 (SF36)评分对患者进行评估。结果平均手术年龄为38.4岁(21-48岁)。手术前症状的平均持续时间为2.8年(6个月至6年)。平均随访时间为12个月(6.4-28个月)。术后平均评分为:DASH, 7.8分;VAS评分1.5分，轻度疼痛10例(90%)，中度疼痛1例(10%);加州大学洛杉矶分校,32;SF-36, 79.47。结论关节镜下入路治疗肩胛骨折断综合征具有良好的功能效果。
