Use of hyaluronic acid injection after arthroscopic release in lateral patellar compression syndrome with degenerative cartilage changes: randomized control trial

Abstract Background Degenerative cartilage changes can be seen, in cases of lateral patellar compression syndrome, involving the patellofemoral joint. Hyaluronic acid is a natural component synovial fluid and responsible for its elastic features function articular surfaces. The aim this study to show effect intra-articular injection acid, after arthroscopic release on functional outcome knee pain those patients with degenerative changes. Method Ninety age (30–50) years syndrome were divided randomly into 2 groups. Group A was treated by received intraarticular weeks surgery. B only. Both groups assessed Kujala score visual analogue scale preoperatively re-assessed postoperatively at 3 months, 6 12 months 24 months. Results There significant improvement Visual post-operatively both ( P -value< 0.001) better group up year follow -value = 0.006) as well 0.035). Conclusion Intra-articular release, changes, result up. Trial registration NCT, NCT04134611 . Registered 18 October 2019 -Retrospectively registered.
