The surgery of juvenile chronic arthritis. An overview.
Surgery now has a well-established place in the management of childhood arthritis. However, satisfactory results can only be achieved by a team of medical experts composed of a pediatric rheumatologist, an orthopedic surgeon, an anesthetist, a physiotherapist, and others who are knowledgeable about the particular problems of juvenile chronic arthritis. An aggressive team approach offers the best available help.
