Event Text Entries

[145934111] (b)(4). The case is a spontaneous report by a physician (medically confirmed) received by fidia business partner in (b)(6). A male patient (age unspecified), on unspecified data, was administered in the knee with a single dose of 20mg/2ml of hyalgan solution for injection by intra-articular route for the treatment of gonarthrosis. After unspecified time the patient experienced septic arthritis (joint pain associated with joint swelling at injection site confirmed by the analysis of synovial fluid). The batch number is not available at the moment; so, no evaluation can be performed to fully exclude a drug origin of the septic arthritis. Septic arthritis is an event listed in the ccsi of hyalgan and often related to the injection itself in case of absence of aseptic precautions, rather than to the drug. However, in absence of further information the causal relationship is assessed as possible. The case has been deemed serious due to hospitalization. This case comes from the country (b)(6) in which hyalgan is classified a drug.
