There is an increase in the aging population that has led to a surge of reported
cases of osteoarthritis and a greater demand for lower extremity arthroplasty.
This article aims to review the current treatment options and expectations when
considering lower extremity arthroplasty in the elderly patient with an emphasis
on the following subjects :
(1) updated clinical guidelines
for the management of
osteoarthritis in the lower extremity, (2) comorbidities and risk factors in the
surgical patient, (3) preoperative evaluation and optimization of the surgical
patient, (4) surgical approach and implant selection, and (5) rehabilitation and
life after lower extremity arthroplasty.
