“…Firstly, Fernandez-Cuadros et al demonstrated that four intra articular infiltrations of ozone (O 2 -O 3 ) were capable of improving clinical parameters; these were pain, function, stiffness, and quality of life in 119 knee OA patients. The improvement reported in the mid-term followup (two months after treatment) was significant (P < 0.001) (8).…”

“…На ранних стадиях остеоартроза (ОА) хрящевые структуры еще способны к самоограничению деструкции [8]. Однако через определенный период времени процесс разрушения хряща становится необратимым, резко ограничивается синтез нормального коллагена и протеогликанов, гипоксия суставных и параартикулярных тканей возрастает [6,[8][9][10][11][12].…”

The present study has demonstrated the expediency and effectiveness of the application of oxygen/ozone therapy during exacerbation of stage І-ІІ knee arthritis as evaluated based on the WOMAC index, VAS, and Lyshom scale within one and six months after the onset of the treatment. The resulting reduction in the number of days of temporary incapacity for work in the patients suffering from knee arthritis gives evidence of the clinical and economic validity of the proposed method of the combined treatment of this condition based on the application of oxygen/ozone therapy.

“…The definitive surgical treatment includes total replacement arthroplasty, which has a success rate of 95% at 10 years, although this technique is not free of risks and complications [2]. Controversy exists regarding the symptomatic and disease-modifying effect of conservative treatments, such as chondroitin sulfate/glucosamine [3,4].…”

The objective of the clinical case is to report the symptomatic effect and, for the first time, the disease-modifying effect of ozone in a patient with osteoarthritis of the knee. A 67-year-old woman has been infiltrated with ozone 1 time/week for 4 weeks, using an oxygen-ozone volume of 20 ml, at a 20-µg/ml concentration. Another cycle of ozone treatment was boosted at 6 months follow-up. Clinical outcomes such as pain, function, and quality of life were measured by the Western Ontario and McMaster University Index for Osteoarthritis (WOMAC) scale. Biochemical markers of inflammation such as C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and uric acid were performed at the beginning and at the end of ozone (O2-O3) treatment protocol. Radiological outcome was evaluated as the change in minimal joint space at the medial compartment of joint space, at the beginning and at 12 months follow-up in both knees. In the first and second ozone cycles, clinical (pain, function, rigidity) and biochemical variables (CRP, ESR, uric acid) improved in our case report. Minimal joint space at medial compartment improved in both knees after 12 months follow-up. Intra-articular ozone (O2-O3) has shown a symptomatic effect and especially a disease-modifying effect in a patient with knee osteoarthritis, improving pain, function, and rigidity; decreasing inflammation biomarkers (CRP, ESR, and uric acid); and increasing the joint space of the medial component evidenced radiologically. The structural effect is reported for the first time in literature. No adverse effects have been observed after intra-articular ozone infiltrations.
