Over the past years there has been an increasing number of total hip or total knee arthroplastic operations. Due to demographic changes this tendency will probably continue. The operation frees the patient of disabling pain and stiffness and gives back the mobility to the patient. This systematic review addresses the impact an operation has on the patients' quality of life, economy, sex-life and possibly depression. We have identified relevant articles by search of PubMed MeSH database and a traditional search of PubMed. Furthermore we have evaluated the reference lists for articles of interest.
在过去几年中，全髋关节或全膝关节置换手术的数量一直在增加。由于人口结构的变化，这种趋势可能会持续下去。该手术使患者摆脱了致残性疼痛和僵硬，并恢复了患者的活动能力。本系统评价探讨了该手术对患者生活质量、经济状况、性生活以及可能的抑郁的影响。我们通过检索PubMed医学主题词数据库和对PubMed进行传统检索来确定相关文章。此外，我们还评估了感兴趣文章的参考文献列表。
