Ultrasound versus palpation-guided corticosteroid injection for de Quervain disease: A randomized controlled trial.

Both ultrasound-guided and palpation-guided injections effectively treated de Quervain disease. During a 6-month follow-up, there were no statistically significant differences between the groups in pain relief, upper limb function, or patient satisfaction. However, the palpation-guided group showed a tendency for more recurrence and skin side effects.
