Abstract

Purpose: To study the efficacy of single dose versus multi-dose local corticosteroid injections for tennis elbow in a prospective, randomized, clinical trial of fifty-two elbows. Material and Methods: Fifty-two patients (fifty-two elbows) were assigned randomly into two groups. We injected single dose of 0,5 ml of Betamethasone diluted with 0,5 ml of Prilocaine into the tendinious origin of the extensor carpi radialis brevis and extensor digitorum muscles in twenty-two elbows (Group 1). Thirty elbows received the same dose of local injection after the diagnosis and during the follow-up for an average of 4,2 times (Group 2). Two groups were compared according to the physical examination, intensity of pain, subjective loss of grip strength and graded objectively according to the criteria of Verhaar scoring system. Results: Six weeks and twelve weeks after the injection, the two groups did not show any difference significantly with regard to pain intensity, subjective satisfaction and according to the Verhaar scoring system. Both groups had significantly less pain thanbefore the treatment (p

Özet

Giriş: Prospektif ve randomize bir çalışma ile lateral epikondilit tanısı alan 52 olgunun 52 dirseği üzerinde tek doz ve çoklu doz lokal kortikosteroid enjeksiyonunun tedavi etkinliğinin araştırılması. Hastalar ve Yöntem: 52 hastanın 52 dirseği rastgele olarak 2 gruba aynldı. 22 dirseğe tanı sonrası sadece bir kez 0.5 mi Betamethasone + 0.5 mi Prilokain karışımı lokal olarak uygulandı. 30 dirseğe ise aynı doz lokal anestezik ve kortikosteroid karışımı tanı sonrası ve gerekli görüldüyse kontrol muayeneleri sonrasında ortalama 4.2 kez uygulandı. Her 2 grupta belirli aralıklarla kontrol edildi; fizik bakı, ağrı şiddeti, sübjektif sorgulama ve objektif olarak Verhaar skorlama sistemine göre değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Lokal enjeksiyon sonrası 6. hafta ve 12. haftada yapılan kontrol muayenelerinde ağrı şiddeti, hasta memnuniyeti ve Verhaar skorlamasında 2 grup arasında anlamlı bir fark saptanmadı. Her 2 gruptada ağrı şiddetinde enjeksiyon öncesine göre anlamlı bir azalma saptandı. (p
