BOS Master Series Monographs (Volume 2) Osteoarthritis Knee

This monograph in simple language defines the indications and expected outcomes for non-operative treatment options that range from medications, activity modification, bracing, rehabilitation and physiotherapy, to chondroprotective agents and intra-articular injections. In a fast-changing world where newer treatment modalities including orthobiologics are increasingly available, this monograph reviews the evidence behind its rational use. Most Indian patients continue non-operative treatment for a reasonable period of time before exploring surgical options, and this monograph helps to define the role of knee preservation surgery including arthroscopic procedures and limb realignment and offloading osteotomy. A host of newer surgical techniques including meniscus repair, meniscus transplantation, and cartilage restoration procedures are available to prevent and delay osteoarthritis of the knee, and these are also discussed in detail. • The monograph aims to serve as a single source for updated information on knee osteoarthritis. • The various treatment options for knee osteoarthritis ranging from nonoperative treatment and orthobiologics to knee preservation surgery and unicompartmental and total knee replacement are discussed. • A case series is provided to highlight the appropriate treatment option for specific clinical and radiological presentations.
