Summary

Injectable PRF technology, according to literature evidence, ensures the release of growth factors over time which play a major role in the release of regenerative factors for tissue repair after injection, while HA is an anti-inflammatory medication that can provide rapid relief from pain and inflammation in joints. It is a major natural component of synovial fluid that plays an important role in lubrication of synovial tissues However, its effect is typically temporary, and it doesn\'t promote tissue healing or regeneration.

For this reason, this protocol has been designed with the aim to investigate whether injection in the injection i- pRF with HA can achieve the same improvements of pain and function, compare this technique with arthrocentesis.

Conditions

  • Internal Derangement

Interventions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

(Arthrocentesis followed by i-PRF +HA)

Intra-articular I-PRF with HA will be injected in the joint,1 ml of I-PRF will be injected inside the joint, Then from 25mg/ml of HA , 1ml will be injected into the superior joint space
