A Case Of Recalcitrant Multi Compartmental Tenosynovitis Treated With Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma – 1 Year Follow Up
Journal Title: International Journal of Orthopaedics Traumatology & Surgical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Tenosynovitis is defined as inflammation of tendon sheath around the tendons which leads to joint pain, stiffness and swelling. Recently the idea of “Orthobiologics” leads to development of less invasive procedures and accelerated treatments which enhances functional recovery of musculoskeletal disorders. Autologous platelet rich plasma has become a novel biological agent of choice for chronic tenosynovitis. Here we report a case of 47 years old male patient with recalcitrant multi compartmental tenosynovitis in extensor aspect of hand who was treated with 2 doses of autologous platelet rich plasma injection under ultrasound guidance, which was followed up for 1 year. The post procedural care, functional outcome and prognosis of chronic multi compartmental tenosynovitis have been elaborated in this article.
