The purpose of this study is to test collagenase injection therapy to dissolve adhesions
causing frozen shoulder.
In a random, placebo controlled, double blind study, collagenase injection therapy will be
investigated for it's ability to lyse the adhesions associated with the shoulder capsule in
adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder).
Treatment success may obviate the need for extensive physical therapy and/or shoulder
arthroscopy (surgery) to correct this condition and restore normal and pain free shoulder
motion.
