Abstract

The request for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is increasingly being raised and imposes an enormous burden on the healthcare system. Most subjects represent symptomatic concomitant low back pain (LBP) at baseline, interfering with functional outcomes with little or no improvement in mental health following TKA. Orthopedics should notify the patients suffering from concomitant LBP about the likelihood of unfavorable recovery. The authors describe the functional outcomes and satisfaction following TKA in patients suffering from concomitant LBP. © 2024 Tehran University of Medical Sciences.
