Abstract
Base of the thumb osteoarthritis (OA) represents a challenge to clinicians due to limited efficient treatment options. Local injection treatment is a good choice for its low systemic side effects and rapid improvement. We conducted our study to compare the effectiveness of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) versus hyaluronic acid injection (HA) versus corticosteroids in thumb carpometacarpal(CMC) joint osteoarthritis based on clinical and functional outcome measures.
