Juan Antonio Garcia-Rodriguez

Check out this month’s instructional video—“Intra-articular knee injections.” Intra-articular injection of the knee is a common and useful procedure in daily practice. Corticosteroid injections are indicated to treat osteoarthritis of the knee, crystal-induced arthropathy, and synovitis in rheumatoid arthritis; viscosupplementation is a step in the long-term treatment of osteoarthritis. The video reviews the equipment and technique required for this procedure.
