Elbow Arthroscopic Capsular Release
Loss of motion in the elbow joint can be caused by a variety of factors, the most common of which is elbow trauma. Restricted elbow motion can cause functional deterioration and interfere with day-to-day tasks. With a combination of physical therapy and a splinting regimen, most patients may restore a functional arc of motion. Some patients, however, will have ongoing elbow stiffness. Open approaches have always been helpful in releasing the elbow joint capsule and restoring a functional arc of motion.
