- Abstract
Intra-articular knee injections with hylan GF-20 (Synvisc) have been shown to provide temporary relief of osteoarthritic symptoms. Several studies have suggested that repeated courses of treatment with this product may be administered without an increase in the likelihood of an adverse reaction. The present study was performed to test the hypothesis that the likelihood of a painful reaction to hylan GF-20 does not increase in patients who receive more than one course of treatment.
