Intracordal Injection of Steroids: Triamcinolone Acetonide

Abstract

The purpose of intracordal injection of steroids is to reduce scar volume and soften scar tissue. Repeated injections are also effective against scarring in the maturation phase. This therapy alone cannot induce scarless healing, however, and treatment should be multidisciplinary. This therapy is useful by virtue of its being the most convenient.
