Treatment of subcutaneous nodules after infusion of apomorphine; a biopsy-controlled study comparing 4 frequently used therapies

We demonstrated that dilution of apomorphine significantly improved patient satisfaction, while subcutaneous hydrocortisone reduced nodule size, however with no differences in the histopathology.
