We have been pretty stumped by the following enquiry, have looked in all the
obvious places and was wondering if anyone may have any good ideas? Its come
to the library via the patient info centre which explains its nature.
What % of patients with psoratic arthritis who have had knee replacements
suffer from post operative infection?
also how many of these eventually suffer from the Koebner phenomenon.
The Koebner phenomenon is a very common problem for people with psoratic
arthritis which can occur after ANY skin damage such as a wound, operation
or even a bad scratch.
We have checked stats showing clinical episodes but wondered if there is
anything obvious we are missing? Any suggestions welcomed!
Many thanks
Sam Brown
