Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Rheumatology
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Arthrosis definitions are vital for clinical practice.
  • Distinguishing between primary and secondary arthrosis is essential.
  • Secondary arthrosis results from pre-arthrosis, involving irreversible joint lesions.

Purpose:

  • To present and explain the main definitions of arthrosis.
  • To differentiate between latent (dormant) and manifest (active/decompensated) arthrosis.
  • To clarify the causes of secondary arthrosis and the origins of pain in manifest arthrosis.

Summary:

  • Arthrosis definitions encompass pathological, anatomical, radiological, and clinical perspectives.
  • Latent and manifest arthrosis present distinct clinical relevance.
  • Primary arthrosis causes remain largely unknown, while secondary arthrosis stems from pre-arthrosis, defined as any joint lesion causing irreversible damage.

Impact:

  • Clarifies the etiology of pain in manifest arthrosis, differentiating between reactive synovitis and decompensation.
  • Provides a basis for selecting appropriate therapeutic interventions.
  • Enhances clinical practitioners' understanding for accurate diagnosis and management of arthrosis.
