Abstract:
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common, frequently met degenerative disease, that generates pain and decreasing functionality; risk of suffering from this disorder increases with ageing. Being a complex disease, treatment is often difficult due to complications. Knee OA therapy demands a strategy that specialists agree with in considering the clinical symptoms and the disease evolution. The initial management of its treatment should be conservative requiring both a pharmacological and a non-pharmacological approach. If this conservative, noninvasive therapy fails, the surgical approach is discussed. The present review focused on the assessment of therapy choices for patients with knee OA, in order to reduce pain and enhance functionality and knee range of motion, underlying benefits and advantages for each choice. Existing data of available treatment for knee OA, both surgical and nonsurgical were analyzed, focusing on the latest results, indications, developments, and level of evidence provided by the literature in the topic.
