Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent joint disease and is associated with pain and disability. It is a major cause of morbidity and restricted mobility in individuals over 40 years of age. Viscosupplementation (VS) is the intra-articular injection of exogenous hyaluronic acid for the treatment of osteoarthritis. Hyaluronic acid exists in several organisms, and when it is not bound to other molecules, it binds to water and becomes gelatinous. Intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid helps improving the rheological properties of the synovial fluid, serving both as a lubricant and as a shock absorber; analgesia; and improvement of joint homeostasis by decreasing inflammation and positively stimulating chondrocytes.
