Epidemiology of Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis

Abstract: Osteoarthritis is a leading cause of disability whose prevalence and incidence continue to increase. History of joint injury represents an important risk factor for posttraumatic osteoarthritis and is a significant contributor to the rapidly growing percentage of the population with osteoarthritis. This review will present the epidemiology associated with posttraumatic osteoarthritis, with particular emphasis on the knee and ankle joints. It is important to understand the effect of posttraumatic osteoarthritis… Show more

“…Etiology of articular cartilage pathology and the resultant disease mechanisms have consistently been noted to significantly influence outcomes of various treatments. 35,36 While a causative event for articular cartilage lesions cannot always be ascertained, acute traumas, injury, malalignment, developmental disorders such as osteochondritis dissecans and dysplasias, chronic repetitive overuse, avascular necrosis, and primary, degenerative osteoarthritis (OA) are common culprits that lead to symptomatic articular cartilage pathology in the knee. Unfortunately, ambiguity regarding etiology and its associated timing in conjunction with striking patient to patient variation in rates of disease progression and related symptoms within etiologies severely limit delineation of causative risk factors that consistently influence outcomes of treatment.…”
