Influence of vitamin C on the incidence of CRPS-I after subacromial shoulder surgery
ConclusionsThe present study found that VC administered prophylactically for 50 days postoperatively is effective in preventing CRPS-I development after SaSS. CRPS-I is a common complication following SaSS, especially in the setting of an open approach. The authors recommend preventive management with VC and arthroscopic approaches when possible for SaSS.Level of evidence IIIRetrospective comparative study.
