| Abstract
|
| Knee osteoarthritis(KOA) is a degenerative disease that develops over time,with pain,swelling and even deformity of the knee joint as the main clinical manifestations. In the dialectic of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),such diseases are generally classified into the categories of "paralysis syndrome" and "bone paralysis",and the early development of the disease is reflected in the tendons,bones,and flesh,which matches the pathological state of "bone abnormality","tendon inflexibility" and "flesh inauthenticity" described in the theory of "muscles,bones and flesh" in TCM. Common surgical interventions in the early stage of KOA include high tibial osteotomy(HTO) and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty(UKA),and this article aims to explore the guiding significance of the "musculoskeletal and flesh" theory for these two surgical treatments. |
