Background: In recent years, fillers procedures with hyaluronic acid (HA) have grown significantly. Despite HA relative safety, the number of cases of complications after injections has grown, and in many of which, we are not aware of or have little control over.
Aims: In this article, the authors describe a new adverse reaction after filling with HA injection, the sterile abscess.
Patients/methods: We present eight patients with similar clinical, laboratory, and ultrasound characteristics for sterile abscess and report a new therapeutic modality for it.
Results: All cases were treated with "Munhoz-Cavallieri Lavage Protocol" procedure with complete resolution.
Conclusions: "Munhoz-Cavallieri Lavage Protocol" serves as a guideline in diagnosis and management of sterile abscess.

Introduction: Dupuytren's contracture is a fibrotic disorder of the palmar fascia, leading to debilitating finger deformities. Traditional treatments, like open fasciectomy and collagenase injection, carry high risks of complications and recurrence. Ultrasound-guided techniques offer a potentially safer, minimally invasive alternative but are limited by the irregular skin surfaces and flexion deformities in Dupuytren's disease.
