Microwave ablation was safe and effective as a long-term adjunct treatment for recurrent monoarthritis in patients resistant to medical therapy.
Microwave ablation reduces synovial hypertrophy, the number of monoarthritis attacks, and the need for intra-articular aspiration in patients with recurrent monoarthritis, significantly improving functional disability and pain scores.Researchers conducted a prospective study to assess the long-term effects of microwave ablation as adjunct therapy in patients with various rheumatic diseases and recurrent monoarthritis resistant to medical treatment.
Patients underwent clinical and radiologic follow-up at 2 weeks and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months post procedure.Microwave ablation significantly reduced the IAA count in the last 6 months before ablation from 129 to 7 in a total of 226 months post ablation ( No complications were observed during the procedure or follow-up, indicating the safety of microwave ablation."Reducing the volume of intractable synovial hypertrophy by shrinking and inactivating with heat-based degradation by MWA makes it possible to avoid more systemic treatments or invasive approach and their possible side effects," the authors wrote.
