| Abstrakt | Osteoarthrosis is a progressive non-inflammatory disease with typical degenerative changes of the articular cartilage. The finger joints and large weight-bearing joints are typically involved. The correlation between X-ray changes and the overall clinical picture is sometimes very poor. The affected joint is swollen, periarticular muscles are atrophic, palpable crepitus is present and range of motion is typically reduced. Therapy for osteoarthrosis consists of prevention of joint overloading, physical therapy, diet, palliative drugs and surgery. | |
| Izvleček | Osteoartoza je napredujoča nevnetna bolezen, za katero so značilne degenerativne spremembe sklepnega hrustanca. Tipično so prizadeti mali sklepi rok in veliki obremenjeni sklepi. Za osteoartrozo je značilna slaba korelacija med rentgenskimi spremembami in kliničnimi znaki ter simptomi. Za prizadet sklep so značilne krepitacije, zmanjšan obseg gibljivosti, zadebelitev koščenih delov sklepa in atrofija mišic. Osteoartrozo zdravimo s preprečevanjem prevelikega obremenjevanja sklepov, fizikalnim zdravljenjem, dieto, zdravili in kirurškimi posegi. | |
