Objective To analyze the clinical curative effect of arthroscopic acromioplasty treatment for subacromial impingement syndrome(SAIS). Methods A total of 52 patients who had SAIS were studied in our hospital by using the Neer score evaluation, the results of the pre-operative and post-operative scores were statistically analyzed. Results All the 52 cases were followed up, the follow-up ranged from 3 to 24 months with an average of 9 months. According to the Neer scoring system, 34 cases less than 70 points in the pre-operation were poor, 14 cases with 71-79 points were fair, 4 cases with 80-89 points were good. And 23 cases with 71-79 points in the post-operation were fair, 24 cases with 80-89 points were good,5 cases with more than 90 points were excellent. The Neer score was(55.25±19.00)before operation, and(81.13±6.28)after operation. There was a significantly statistical difference (t=-9.33, P<0.05). Conclusion The pain and activity of the patients were improved by the arthro scopic acromioplasty. And it has many advantages,such as faster post-operative recovery,low risk of complications and so on.
