Abstract
As a first-line classical drug, glucocorticoids are used in most combination treatment regimens of keloid. However, there are issues such as poor treatment efficacy and recurrence of keloid after keloid was treated with glucocorticoids, which seriously affect the therapeutic effect. In recent years, many studies have explored the factors influencing the efficacy of glucocorticoids in treating keloid and the action mechanism of glucocorticoids from different perspectives. Based on this, this paper reviews the mechanism and the factors influencing the efficacy of glucocorticoids in treating keloid, and explores ways to improve the treatment efficacy of glucocorticoids, aiming to provide thoughts for improving glucocorticoid-related diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
