Abstract

The resulting degree of disablement and decrease in working ability are presented, as well as the prognosis and socio-economical aspects of the disease. Follows a rough delimitation of degenerative and inflammatory joint diseases, primary and secondary arthrosis and latent and manifest clinical pictures of the disorders. Next, the possible triggering factors of the arthrosis, which are mostly of a highly complex nature, are presented. The symptomatology of the degenerative joint disorders partly depends on their localization.
