Orthopaedic treatment options for rheumatological patients have been further developed over recent years. For orthopaedic treatment, a range of different interventions are offered: orthoses and special technical aids as well as injections for joints and tendons, or surgery. Surgical interventions cover joint preservation, restitution and arthrodeses. Improvements in equipment and surgical procedures also make minimally invasive interactions possible for rheumatoid diseases. Thus, postoperative morbidity has been reduced significantly. Improvement in function, reduction of pain and prevention of recurrent local inflammation are primary. Considering these aims, arthrodeses are restricted to special indications. Joint preservation and restitution are the predominant measures used. The various procedures are discussed.
