Abstract:
This review aims to cover a wide array of minimally invasive musculoskeletal procedures developed to address several articular and periarticular conditions locally. In part 2, we will cover nerve blocks, ozonetherapy, platelet-rich plasma and derivatives, prolotherapy, radiopharmaceuticals, sclerotherapy, thermal ablation, and intratissue percutaneous electrolysis. A review of guidelines covering these issues will also be presented. In part 1, in addition to details related to ultrasound guidance, we reviewed barbotage, botulinum toxin, corticosteroids, dry needling, gene therapy, hyaluronic acid, hydrodissection, and mesenchymal stem cells.
