The efficacy of intraarticular sodium hyaluronate injection following arthroscopic debridement in the treatment of gonarthrosis

Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of intraarticular sodium hyaluronate injection following arthroscopic debridement in the treatment of degenerative knee diseases. Methods: Arthroscopic debridement was performed in 57 patients for chondral lesions detected in the medial femoral condyle. There were 19 males and 38 females (mean age 56 years; range 11-75 years). According to the Outerbridge classification, the chondral lesions were grade I-II (group A) in 26 knees and grade III-IV (group B) in 31 knees. Patients in whom debridement was performed together with partial meniscectomy and plica excision were excluded. In all cases, following arthroscopic debridement, intraarticular sodium hyaluronate injection was performed once a week for three weeks. Postoperative evaluation was made according to the Lysholm scoring system in the 6th and 22nd months. Results: At the sixth month of follow-up, the mean Lysholm scores increased by 41.5 and 29.8 points in groups A and B, respectively, with excellent-to good results being 84.6% in group A, and 38.7% in group B. At the 22nd month, the scores decreased by 7 points in group A and 8 points in group B, with excellent-to good results being 69.2% and 22.5%, respectively. Conclusions: We concluded that the efficacy of intraarticular sodium hyaluronate injection following arthroscopic debridement in relieving pain and functional improvement did not last long.
