Assessment of Selected Factors Influencing the Development of Stiffness after Total Knee Arthroplasty

Abstract

1. Pain and range of motion in the operated joint may need to be taken into consideration as factors in the development of stiffness in the early post-operative period after primary total knee arthroplasty. 2. There is a need for further research on the problem of knee joint stiffness in the early post-operative period.
