BACKGROUND: Intra-articular injections are commonly used to manage joint pathologies, including osteoarthritis. While conventional ultrasound (US) guidance has generally improved intra-articular injection accuracy, forefoot and midfoot joint interventions are still often performed without imaging guidance. This pilot study aims to evaluate the efficacy of office-based, portable ultrasound (P-US) guided intra-articular injections for forefoot and midfoot joint pain caused by various degenerative pathologies...

Back pain is common in ridden horses. Back diseases in horses include Impinging Dorsal Spinous Processes, Ventral Spondylosis, Osteoarthritis of Articular Process, Intervertebral Discs Disease, Vertebral Fractures, Conformational Abnormalities, Desmopathy of the Supraspinous Ligament, Desmopathy of the Intraspinous Ligament, and Longissimus Muscle Strain. Back pain may also develop as a result of lameness (particularly hindlimb lameness). A poorly fitting saddle and an unbalanced rider are also considered important factors influencing the development of back pain in horses...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Hip osteoarthritis (OA) has a prevalence of 2.9% in Portugal and is a related cause of pain and disability. A sufficient number of patients report these symptoms even after total hip arthroplasty (THA), while others are contraindicated to such surgery and suffer from uncontrolled pain. Percutaneous denervation of hip nerve branches using radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has emerged as a powerful therapeutic avenue to consider for patients with chronic hip pain. METHODS: Between January 2020 and March 2021, 26 patients with chronic hip pain received ultrasound-guided RFA with a pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block technique adaptation...

Joint effusion is diagnostically important. The canine carpal joint effusion, which is sometimes difficult to detect clinically, has received less attention in diagnostic ultrasound (US) studies. The aim of the present study was to provide a description of the morphological appearance of the canine carpal joint cavities and recesses using US, radiography, helical computed tomography (CT) and three-dimensional volume rendering technique (3D-VRT) images and to prove the applicability of musculoskeletal US for the detection of artificial carpal joint effusion in dogs...

BACKGROUND: Chronic hip pain is one of the most common and difficult-to-treat causes of disability. Our study's primary aim was to investigate the effects of ultrasound and fluoroscopy-guided radiofrequency thermocoagulation of the femoral and obturator nerve articular branches on chronic hip pain, and the secondary aim was to determine its effects on hip function and quality of life. METHODS: Fifty-three patients with hip pain lasting more than three months were enrolled in the study...

BACKGROUND: Ultrasound guide technology, which can provide real-time visualization of the needle tip and tissues and avoid many adverse events, is widely used in minimally invasive therapy. However, the studies on ultrasound-guided Lateral recess block (LRB) are limited, this is probably because there is no recognized standard method for ultrasound scanning. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of ultrasound-guided LRB in patients with lateral recess stenosis (LRS). CASE SUMMARY: A 65-year-old patient complained of low back pain accompanied occasionally by pain and numbness in the left lower limb...

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to use ultrasonography to measure femoral articular cartilage thickness changes during marathon running, which could support MRI studies showing that deformation of knee cartilage during long-distance running is no greater than that for other weight-bearing activities. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Participants included 38 marathon runners with no knee pain or history of knee injury, aged 18-39. Ultrasound images of the femoral articular cartilage were taken two hours before and immediately after the race...

BACKGROUND Neck pain is a prevalent and burdensome health issue, with autologous conditioned serum (ACS), like Orthokine, being a recognized treatment for musculoskeletal conditions due to its anti-inflammatory effects. However, the optimal ACS administration method for neck pain remains unclear. The existing literature lacks robust evidence, especially for different injection techniques. This study aimed to compare ACS infiltration into cervical fascia with periarticular administration to determine if the former is as effective in alleviating neck pain, offering a novel approach to its management...

BACKGROUND: Intra-articular glucocorticoid injection (IAGI) is widely used for treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA) flares. Response rates are generally around 70%. Several studies have tried to identify predictors of good response, but response to ultrasound (US)-guided injection has not yet been investigated. This study aimed to identify the predictors of response to IAGI performed under US guidance in patients with primary knee OA. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 116 patients (116 knees) presenting with unilateral or bilateral primary knee OA were enrolled for this prospective single-center study...

BACKGROUND: An accurate and objective criterion is needed to determine candidates who are suitable for hip arthroscopy in patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). PURPOSE: To determine whether improvement in pain after ultrasound (US)-guided intra-articular hip injection during standardized examinations can be used to predict the outcomes of hip arthroscopy in patients with FAI. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: We enrolled 119 patients with FAI who underwent US-guided intra-articular hip injection of local anesthesia during standardized examinations, carried out from May 2018 to February 2020 (within 2 weeks before hip arthroscopy)...

This study investigated the validity of using OpenSim to measure muscle-tendon unit (MTU) length of the bi-articular lower limb muscles in several postures (shortened, lengthened, a combination of shortened and lengthened involving both joints, neutral and standing) using 3D freehand ultrasound (US), and to propose new personalized models. MTU length was measured on 14 participants and 6 bi-articular muscles (semimembranosus SM, semitendinosus ST, biceps femoris BF, rectus femoris RF, gastrocnemius medialis GM and gastrocnemius lateralis GL), considering 5 to 6 postures...

AIM: Joint damage due to haemarthrosis can be effectively monitored with point-of care ultrasound using the Haemophilia Early Arthropathy Detection with US (HEAD-US) scoring system. A post hoc comparative analysis of the joint status of patients with severe haemophilia A (HA) or B (HB) was performed. METHODS: The databases of two observational, cross-sectional studies that recruited patients with HA or HB from 12 Spanish centres were analysed to compare the status of the elbows, knees and ankles in patients with severe disease according to treatment modality...

OBJECTIVE: Injection of the tibiotalar (TT) joint is commonly performed in clinical practice under ultrasound (US) guidance using an anteromedial approach. However, in some patients, this approach may be technically challenging due to post-traumatic and/or degenerative bony changes. Therefore, the aim of this cadaveric investigation was to demonstrate the feasibility of the ultrasound-guided (USG) injection of the ankle joint via the anterolateral sulcus (ALS) by confirming the dye placement/distribution inside the articular space...

Although arthroscopy is the treatment of choice for horses with osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), it is not yet known whether intra-articular therapies in the postoperative period can bring any benefit to the recovery of these animals. This study evaluated the effects of the intra-articular application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), hyaluronic acid (HA) or lactated Ringer's solution (LR) in horses with OCD undergoing arthroscopy. Eighteen male and female Brazilian Sport horses aged between 2 and 6 years were evaluated...

PURPOSE: Chronic pain can affect up to 40% of patients after ankle inversion sprains. The current hypothesis to explain this high percentage of chronic pain is a partial/total rupture of anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) superior fascicle, a structure that has recently been described as intra-articular and as having a different function than ATFL's inferior fascicle. This has created the need for diagnosing ATFL superior and inferior fascicles independently. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate if the ATFL's superior fascicle can be visualized on ultrasound, and to describe its ultrasonographic appearance...
