Summary
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of chronic musculoskeletal pain and functional disability worldwide, affecting an increasing number of people. Despite various conservative and interventional treatment approaches, pain, the most important clinical problem in the disease, is suboptimally controlled. Hip osteoarthritis is a chronic condition characterized by progressive degeneration of the joint cartilage and inflammation of the synovial membrane. The incidence of symptomatic hip OA is estimated to be approximately 25%, and its prevalence is increasing due to the aging of the global population and the rise in obesity (1). Conservative methods such as oral medications and physical therapy modalities are available for its management. However, in some patients, pain persists despite these conservative treatment methods, and ongoing pain significantly impairs patients' daily living activities. There are some interventional treatment methods used in these patients, and the most commonly used methods are intra-articular corticosteroid (CS) and local anesthetic (LA) injections and, in some patients, a pericapsular nerve (PENG) block administered in addition to these injections.
