Knæartrose - diagnostik og behandling

Henrik Husted, Henrik Schrøder, Anders Odgaard, Anders Troelsen

Abstract

The diagnosis of arthrosis of the knee is based on anamnestic, clinical and radiological findings. Epidemiological Danish data are presented with a diagnostic algorithm. Treatment ranges from initially conservative - although with limited evidence of cost-benefit efficiency - towards surgical intervention. As opposed to dogma suggesting a delay of arthroplasty, early surgical intervention results in improved outcomes. Optimal treatment of co-morbidities and control of haemoglobin before referral to surgery optimizes patient outcome.
