  • Posledice imobilizacije kolena = Consequences of knee joint immobilisation
    Grošelj-Grenc, Mojca ; Veselko, Matjaž
    The article reviews the influence of knee joint immobilisation on its structural components: muscles, bones, ligaments, tendons, joint capsule and articular cartilage. Immobilisation rcsult: in ... measurable decrement of musele strength and their atrophy. It produces a decline of bonc mass, a weakening ofthe joints' dense fibrous tissue and a gradual loss of articular cartilage, which is ultimately replaced by fibrous fatty tissue. On the contrary, mobilisation and partial weight-bearing have beneficial effect on healing of traumatised knee structures. Conservatively or surgieally treated, it is better to protect them by using functional braces or taping, than to immobilise them.
