Abstract: Visupupmentation for the treatment of glenohumeral arthritis is a non-surgical treatment capable of improving joint mobility and relieving symptoms. Its intra-articular administration has been shown to be beneficial for synovial liquid properties, protective and reparative for the joint structure. However, there are currently few studies with good methodology and clinical results. The objective of this study was to conduct a review of the literature on the viscosupplementation of hyaluronic acid in glenohumeral arthritis to evidence and clarify the published results on the improvement of pain, function, range of motion and improvement period. Orthopedic medical literature was reviewed in the Medline, Pubmed, Regional Medicine Library (BIREME) and Cochrane Libery databases.
