本文报告了42例截肢者的临床和放射学检查。与截肢侧相比，未截肢小腿膝关节骨关节病明显增多。截肢侧典型地表现为骨质疏松。将骨关节病的患病率与人群中的数据进行比较，更有可能是截肢的骨质疏松症对一侧产生了保护作用，而不是机械因素导致了对侧更多的骨关节病。大约一半的患者出现背痛，19%的患者出现严重的背痛。它似乎与椎间盘退变无关，但%的患者观察到了脊柱侧弯。
A clinical and radiological survey of bone and joint changes in 42 lower limb amputees was reported. There was a significant increase in osteoarthrosis in the knee of the unamputated legs compared with the amputated side. The amputated side characteristically showed osteoporosis. Comparing the prevalence of osteoarthrosis with figures in the population, it was more likely that the osteoporosis of the amputated limb had a protective effect on that side than that mechanical factors produced more osteoarthrosis on the contralateral side. Backache occurred in about half the patients, and was severe in 19%. It did not appear to be relate to disc degeneration, but scoliosis was observed in 64% of patients.
