Abstract

Treatment of osteoarthritis of the ankle joint is similar to that of any other large joint and includes conservative and surgical treatments. Surgical option in severe osteoarthritis is joint fusion or joint replacement, whereas conservative treatment is limited and includes mainly ankle supports, physical therapy, and oral medication. Hyaluronic acid was discovered in 1934 and now has been widely used in the knee and shoulder joints. We reviewed the articles about an intra-articular hyaluronic acid injection in the treatment of osteoarthritis of the ankle joint.

족관절 내 히알루론산 주사 후 효과에 대한 참고 자료를 살펴 본 결과 대부분의 연구들이 족관절 내 히알루론산 주사에 대한 효과와 안전에 대해 긍정적으로 보고하고 있지만, 아직까지는 결론을 짓기는 어렵다고 하겠다. 추후 많은 환자를 대상으로 한 무작위 이중맹검 위약대조군 연구(randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trials)를 통해 그 결과를 평가해야 할 것으로 사료되며, 또한 장기 추시를 통해 효과 발현 시기 및 지속 기간을 평가해야 할 것이다.
