The article discusses the issue and our own experience of local therapy for osteoarthritis of the ankle joint with injections of linear hyaluronic acid under ultrasound navigation. Since the ankle joint is difficult in terms of surgical treatment in general and endoprosthetics in particular, a course of intra-articular injection of 1% Flexotron® Forte hyaluronate, especially in the early stages of dystrophic changes in cartilage, is a promising method for relieving pain, chondroprotection and preserving the biomechanics of the joint, and ultrasound navigation when performing manipulation, it ensures the most accurate introduction of the drug into the joint cavity.

This article presents the experience of successfully switching therapy from omalizumab 150 mg to benralizumab 30 mg/1 ml in a patient with a combined allergic and eosinophilic phenotype in the presence of hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The effectiveness of biological therapy was evaluated when switching from omalizumab 150 mg subcutaneously at a dose of 600 mg for 36 weeks. Therapy for the drug benralizumab 30 mg/1 ml subcutaneously the first three injections monthly, the rest a month later for 52 weeks with bronchial asthma (BA), a severe uncontrolled course with a combined allergic and eosinophilic phenotype in the presence of hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in a patient Ch., born in 2004. ⋯ Reduction of exacerbations, normalization of respiratory function indicators, complete control of the disease has been achieved. Consequently, the use of different biological molecules for the therapy of BA with a combined allergic and eosinophilic phenotype contributes to achieving disease control, improving the patient's quality of life and reducing the dose of oral glucocorticosteroids. The targeted biological drug benralizumab 30 mg/1 ml has a targeted effect on the key links in the pathogenesis of severe uncontrolled asthma with a combined allergic and eosinophilic phenotype in the presence of hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and reduces the burden of severe disease.
