Certain crystals cause synovial tissue inflammation and variability of inflammatory indicators like plasmatic prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), fibrinogen (PF) and synovial tissue PGE2. We evaluated Helium-Neon Laser efficacy on PF, plasmatic PGE2 and synovial PGE2 and its ability to induce involution of anatomopathological (AP) lesions in induced granulomatose process, alone and combined with a meloxicam injection. Rats were assigned to five different treatment groups. 5 mW He-Ne Laser radiation (632.8 nm) and 8 J.cm2 energy density were used in the treated groups. PF and plasmatic PGE2 and synovial PGE2 levels decreased in granulomatose arthritis groups treated with low level laser therapy (LLLT) or with a meloxicam injection or a combination of both therapies; the differences being statistically significant (p<0.01), as compared with the non-treated control group. In the combination therapy group, involution of granulomatose inflammation was observed. We conclude that He-Ne laser treatment or meloxicam administration after experimentally induced inflammation, normalizes plasmatic PGE2 and fibrinogen levels, but produces similar histological lesions as non-treated controls.
