Twenty-five grossly obese males were investigated for evidence of osteoarthrosis. A roentgenological survey of multiple joints obtained from 22 of these patients showed few significant degenerative changes. 6 patients (20%) had previously incurred traumatic rents in their menisci necessitating meniscectomy. Our results refute previous claims that obesity is a factor in the genesis of osteoarthrosis but do indicate that obese individuals are more predisposed to traumatic injury of the knee.
对25名严重肥胖男性进行了骨关节炎证据的调查。对其中22名患者的多个关节进行的X线检查显示,几乎没有明显的退行性改变。6名患者(20%)先前半月板受过创伤性撕裂,需要进行半月板切除术。我们的结果反驳了先前认为肥胖是骨关节炎发病因素的说法,但确实表明肥胖个体更容易发生膝关节创伤性损伤。
