[The use of sodium hyaluronate to treat upper limb disease: A review].
The most common diseases of the upper limb are osteoarthritis (OA) of the joints of the hands, lateral epiconlitis, tendinitis of the shoulder muscles, adhesive capsulitis. OA of the shoulder and acromioclavicular joints is less common. The development of acute and subacute pain in the elbow and shoulder joints in the vast majority of cases is determined by the pathology of soft tissues: muscles, ligamentous apparatus and related synovial bags, making it difficult to diagnose. ⋯ Most of the cited studies demonstrated the efficacy and good tolerance of 1% sodium hyaluronate. In the domestic market it is presented in the drug Flexotron Forte. The authors provide the results of the study results, demonstrating the efficacy and safety of using Flexotron Forte to clinical practice.
