Abstract

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease commonly affecting the knee, especially the medial compartment, causing cartilage loss, joint space narrowing, deformity, and limited mobility. Radiological severity is graded by the Kellgren-Lawrence system. Advanced or tricompartmental disease requires total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a rare but recognized complication following TKA.
