CRD SUMMARY:

This review assessed intra-articular injections of Hylan G-F 20 for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. The available evidence suggested that Hylan G-F 20 injections decreased pain and improved knee function in the short term. The authors' conclusions are supported by the data presented, but differences between included studies, suggest they should be viewed with caution.
