Brief Summary:
Knee osteoarthritis is the most common type of osteoarthritis in the lower extremity and constitutes 23% of all arthritis cases, about 13% of females and 10% of males aged above 60 years have symptomatic knee OA. Intra-articular corticosteroids (IACs) are a frequently-used treatment regimen for pain relief from symptomatic knee OA as it inhibits inflammation and reduces prostaglandin synthesis. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood product containing a high percentage of various growth factors (GFs), such as fibroblast growth factor, epidermal growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, transforming growth factor-β and platelet-derived growth factor. The aim of this study is to compare effect of intra-articular injection of platelet rich plasma versus corticosteroid in treatment of primary knee osteoarthritis.
