“…Side effects are mainly related to discomfort from the procedure, localized pain post injection, and flushing 3 . The knee injection is the best studied intraarticular injection 4 . Efficacy has been established for knee arthritis associated with RA, OA, and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in terms of pain relief and functional improvement for months, up to a year after injection 5 .…”

“…36 The volume of injectate is 3 to 4 mL of local anesthetic and steroid such as 2% lidocaine and 40 mg methylprednisolone acetate. 28,30,37 Subtalar Joint Injection: Accuracy Similar to the ankle joint, subtalar joint injection has historically been performed using anatomic guidance. The techniques for landmark and fluoroscopic guidance for subtalar joint injections have been reviewed previously.…”

Ultrasound-guided injections in pain medicine are emerging as a popular technique for pain interventions. Ultrasound can be applied for procedures of the ankle joint and surrounding structures. This review describes the anatomy and sonoanatomy of the ankle joint, subtalar joint, and surrounding extra-articular structures relevant for intra-articular injection. Second, it reviews injection techniques and the accuracy and efficacy of these intra-articular ankle injections.

“…Since the 1950s, clinicians searched for new therapeutic strategies to limit the systemic side effects of corticosteroids, such as the administration of corticosteroid joint injections in patients with rheumatoid arthritis [ 9 ]. However, even if intra-articular steroid administration is generally considered as a safe procedure, sometimes it can be contraindicated or cause side effects (Table 2 ) [ 10 ]. Regarding oral steroid therapy, an alternate-day regimen was developed to reduce the systemic effects.…”

More than six decades have elapsed since the introduction of corticosteroids into the pharmacologic armamentarium of pediatricians. Despite the widespread clinical use of these agents for many years, several questions remain concerning their appropriate therapeutic role, indications, possible regimens, and adverse effects. The discovery of corticosteroids can be considered one of the most important therapeutic revolutions of the last century. Steroids became crucial for the treatment of several infl ammatory and rheumatic diseases, including diseases that occur during childhood. However, the great enthusiasm over the discovery of corticosteroids was hampered in later years by the identifi cation of important side effects that raised concerns regarding steroid therapy. Thus, in the past years, research focused on the development of new steroid compounds with lower toxicity and higher effi cacy as well as on novel therapeutic regimens. Now, 60 years later, treatment with corticosteroids has stood the test of time, and despite the well-known side effects they are still a keystone in the therapy of many disorders and can sometimes be life-saving [ 1 ].In 1930, for the fi rst time an extract of animal adrenocortical tissue was demonstrated to counter human adrenal failure. Subsequently, following chemical analyses of cortical extracts, it became clear that there was not one cortical hormone, but several steroid hormones. By 1940 two categories of corticosteroids were identifi ed: those that caused sodium and fl uid retention (mineralocorticoids) and those that opposed shock and infl ammation (glucocorticoids) [ 2 ]. Extractive chemistry, chemical synthesis, and clinical investigations were combined, resulting in the discovery of cortisone and a long series of related derivatives [ 3 ]. P. Hench postulated that an antirheumatic chemical, or "substance X," was produced in response to stress. In
