HLA-B27 antigen is strongly correlated with ankylosing spondylitis and several other rheumatic diseases. However, data concerning frozen shoulder are contradictory. Bulgen reported an increased frequency of HLA-B27 which was not observed by Noy. We performed HLA typing of 46 French patients with frozen shoulder. We agree with Noy: frozen shoulder is not correlated with HLA-B27.

This study compares the efficacy of hydrodilatation (HD) alone with intra-articular corticosteroid injection (ICI) in treating frozen shoulder (FS). A total of 48 patients with FS were randomly assigned to two groups: 24 patients received HD treatment, while the other 24 patients received ICI treatment. HD involved 20 mL 0.

Background: Iliopsoas injuries are a common cause of anterior hip and groin pain and can be successfully managed with conservative treatment. Corticosteroid and local anesthetic injections can also be offered in conjunction with nonoperative management. Given the variability in reported injection guidelines, composition, and techniques, the purpose of this study was to systematically review the literature to assess progression to surgery and patient outcomes following iliopsoas injections.

Background: Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a painful condition that can impair a patient's quality of life. If nonoperative measures fail, progressively more invasive treatment options may be required. This clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma (LR-PRP) injections in the treatment of refractory GTPS caused by bursitis and/or gluteal tendinopathy.
