Popis: Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a common clinical entity for which the most effective treatment is local corticosteroid injection (LCI). There are no studies on the effect of LCI among patients with GTPS on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis. The present study recruited nonselected patients diagnosed with GTPS. After consenting, participants received low dose (1 μg) of adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) stimulation test at 09:00. Immediately following the test, participants received a LCI of 80 mg of methylprednisolone acetate at the greater trochanteric region. The ACTH stimulation test was repeated 1, 2, 4, and 6 weeks following the LCI. Cortisol samples were obtained at just prior to (basal) and 30 min (post-stimulation) following every ACTH stimulation test. Serum cortisol levels of
