Abstract

Frozen shoulder (FS) is speculated to have an inflammatory etiology. On angiography, abnormal angiogenesis is observed around the affected shoulder, suggesting a possible source of inflammation and pain. The effectiveness and safety of transarterial embolization (TAE) targeting abnormally proliferating blood vessels have been reported. This study investigated changes in chronic inflammatory and hypoxic status before and after TAE in FS by [F]-FDG-PET/CT as a possible mechanism of the therapeutic response to TAE.
