Efficacy of Viscosupplementation Associated With Intra-articular Corticosteroid Injection Versus Intra-articular Injection of Corticosteroids Alone in Osteoarthritis of Hip (VISCOSUPP-HIP)

July 26, 2017 updated by: CHU de Reims

The current management of osteoarthritis is based on non-pharmacological and pharmacological means which include intra-articular injections.

The recommendations on the management of hip osteoarthritis stipulate that intra-articular injections of corticosteroid may be considered in patients with an exacerbation not responding to oral treatments. Several recent studies show the effectiveness of intra-articular corticosteroids compared with anesthetics. The intra-articular injection of viscosupplementation alone has never been validated in this indication since controlled studies did not show efficacy over placebo. At present, viscosupplementation is considered an anti-osteoarthritic symptomatic slow-acting and its interest is not yet established in hip osteoarthritis.
