Intra-articular injection in patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis: factors associated with a good response

Conclusion In our study, more than half of the joints showed a good response to IIC. Younger patients at diagnosis and uveitis during the course of the disease had good response to IIC. Knees, wrists and elbows were the joints that best responded to IIC. IIC proved to be a safe procedure.
