  • The influence of a single intra-articular lidocaine injection on the viability of articular cartilage in the knee [Elektronski vir]
    Ravnihar, Klemen ...
    Objective. To evaluate the in vivo effect of a single intra-articular injection of local anesthetic (LA) lidocaine on the viability of articular cartilage in the intact or osteoarthritic (OA) human ... knees, and to measure the synovial postinjection concentration of lidocaine in the knee. Design. This study includes 3 interconnected experiments: (A) Synovial LA concentration measurement after a 2% lidocaine injection before knee arthroscopy in 10 patients by liquid chromatography%tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). (B) Human osteochondral explants (N = 27) from intact knees procured at autopsies were incubated for different time intervals (30 minutes, 2 hours, 24 hours) with 2% lidocaine, 0.04% lidocaine (measured), or culture medium (control), and later evaluated for cell viability by LIVE/DEAD staining. (C) Ten out of 19 matched patients scheduled for knee replacement received a single intra-articular injection of 2% lidocaine approximately 30 minutes prior to the procedure; 9 patients served as control. Osteochondral samples with OA changes were harvested during surgery and analyzed for chondrocyte viability by LIVE/DEAD staining. Results. (A) The synovial LA concentration was significantly lower than the primary concentration injected: average 0.23 mg/mL (0.02%), highest measured 0.37 mg/mL (0.04%). (B) In vitro exposure to a reduced LA concentration had no significant influence on chondrocyte viability in intact cartilage explants (24-hour averages: control, 93%; 0.04% lidocaine, 92%; 2% lidocaine, 79%). (C) Viability of chondrocytes in OA knees was similar between 2% lidocaine injection (85%) and control (80%). Conclusions. A single intra-articular knee injection of 2% lidocaine did not influence the chondrocyte viability neither in healthy nor in OA cartilage. A fast postinjection reduction of synovial LA concentration (more than 40 times) is the most likely protective mechanism.
