Osteoarthritis after sports knee injuries.
Recent advances in the knowledge of tissue homeostasis, including the tissue homeostasis theory and the envelope of function theory as proposed by Dye, have greatly increased our knowledge of the pathophysiology of osteoarthrosis after sports knee injuries. The development of these two theories has not only advanced our understanding of the treatment and prevention of osteoarthrosis after acute injuries to the knee, but has also given us guidance as to directions for future research.
