title: Osteo-articular diseases as comorbidity in non-orthopaedic surgery.
abstract: Osteo-articular diseases have significant presence among general population. Osteo-articular disorders can be caused by disease or by trauma. There are many osteo-articular diseases which have influence on general state of the organysm and on other present diseases in a various level. The influence appears by increasing risk of main disease complications, limited movement complicates postoperative treatment of main disease and medicament therapy of osteo-articular disease sometimes modifies perioperative therapy of main disease. Trauma as comorbidity needs urgent care and, in the same time, it is a huge complication for the injured condition. Osteoarticular trauma healing usually lasts several weeks, so it prolongs the healing of intercurrent surgical disease. Osteo-articular changes as comorbidity during the acute surgical disease healing need proper preoperative preparing, With the aim to minimise perioperative morbidity and mortality.
