ABSTRACT
Traumatic arthritis (TA) is one of the common diseases of bone and joint caused by trauma. The main pathological changes are degeneration of articular cartilage and secondary hyperplasia and ossification of cartilage. The main clinical manifestations are joint pain and dysfunction of movement. Its pathogenesis is still unclear. At present, the treatment of TA is based mainly on symptoms rather than etiology, including physical therapy, drug treatment, surgical treatment, etc. Conservative treatment (physical therapy, drug treatment) can only alleviate short-term pain, and the long-term effect is not satisfactory. Thus, patients with middle and late TA tend to choose surgical treatment. At present, the surgical treatment of TA includes arthroscopic debridement, arthrodesis, cartilage repair, osteotomy, artificial joint replacement, 3D printing technology, etc. There are differences in the postoperative efficacy. This article reviews the current situation of surgical treatment for TA.
