Abstract

Intra-articular and peri-articular hyaluronic acid (HA) injections are widely used to treat several musculoskeletal pathologies. Although clinical outcomes are often positive for different conditions, an holistic consensus on this topic is still lacking. Our work is divided in two main sessions: in the first section we analyzed the preclinical bases for HA treatment in musculoskeletal pathologies, while in the second part we discussed the evidence on the use of HA injections in each district of musculoskeletal system. The aim of this work is to provide to the physician a feasible guideline rapidly to consult in the clinical practice.
