ANCHYLOSE Meaning and
Definition
-
Anchylose is a medical term used to describe the pathological condition where a joint becomes permanently fused, immobilized, or stiff. This condition is characterized by the fusion of bones within a joint, resulting in the loss of joint mobility and limited range of motion. The term derives from the Greek word "ankylos" meaning "stiff" or "crooked" and "osis" representing a condition or disease.
Anchylose can occur as a result of various factors, such as trauma, infection, inflammation, degenerative diseases like arthritis, or surgical intervention. When a joint is subjected to prolonged immobilization or lacks movement due to injury, the body may respond by producing excess bone tissue around and within the joint. This excessive bone growth can lead to the fusion of joint surfaces, resulting in anchylose.
Symptoms of anchylose include pain, swelling, joint deformity, and the inability to move the affected joint. The severity of symptoms can vary depending on the underlying cause and the extent of joint fusion.
Treatment for anchylose aims to alleviate pain, maintain mobility, and improve quality of life. Non-surgical approaches may involve physical therapy, stretching exercises, and the use of assistive devices. In severe cases, surgical intervention may be required to release the fused joint surfaces and restore joint movement.
Overall, anchylose refers to the pathological fusion and immobility of a joint due to various factors, often leading to pain and reduced functionality.
