Abstract

A substantial number of individuals with a traumatic knee injury developed early PTOA (9.6%). Certain knee injuries have a greater association with PTOA. Future studies should implement longer surveillance periods and identify other healthcare variables associated with the risk of developing PTOA, to include appropriate and timely interventions.
