The analgesic effect of xylocaine alone versus xylocaine with corticosteroid injection after ultrasonographically (US)-guided treatment of rotator cuff calcific tendonosis has not been described in English literature. The aim of this study was to compare the analgesic effect of xylocaine only with xylocaine and corticosteroid following US-guided percutaneous treatment of rotator cuff calcific tendonosis.
