Diz Osteoartriti Tedavisinde Eklem İçi Botilinum A Enjeksiyonunun Etkinliği

Öz

Osteoartrit (OA), başta kıkırdak olmak üzere eklemi oluşturan bütün yapıları etkileyen ilerleyici bir eklem hastalığıdır. Özellikle OA bağlı diz ağrısı yaşlılarda görülen fiziksel yetersizliğin en sık nedenlerinden biri olduğu çalışmalarda gösterilmiştir. Konvansiyonel tedavi yöntemleri ile ağrı palyasyonu sağlanamayan hastalarda intra-artiküler botulinum toksin (BTX)  enjeksiyonu ile ilgili yayınlara son zamanlarda daha sık rastlanmaktadır.Bu olgu sunumunda geleneksel tedavi yöntemleri ile yeterli ağrıda azalma sağlayamadığımız diz OA tanılı hastada  eklem içi BTX-A enjeksiyonunun etkilerini tartışmayı  hedefledik.

The Efficacy of Intraartricular Botulinum A Injection in the Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis

Öz

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive joint disease that affects all structures, especially cartilage. Knee pain caused by OA has been shown to be one of the most common causes of physical impairment in the elderly. Recently, articles on intra-articular botulinum toxin (BTX) injection in patients with no palliation of pain with conventional treatment methods have been reported frequently. In this case, we aimed to discuss whether intra-articular BTX-A injection affects in patient with knee OA in which we can not achieve a sufficient palliation of pain with conventional treatment modalities.
