Osteoartrit, eklemlerde en sık rastlanan, destruksiyonla sonuçlanan kronik bir hastalıktır. Eklemlerdeki ağrı ve fonksiyon kaybının toplumdaki en sık nedenidir. Tedavide öncelikli hedef, hastalığın seyri ve sonuçları konusunda hastayı eğitmek, ağrıyı hafifletip günlük yaşam aktivitelerindeki fonksiyonelliği sağlamak ve eklem hasarının ilerlemesini önlemektir. Bugüne kadar osteoartrit tedavisi ile ilgili birçok farmakolojik, nonfarmakolojik ve cerrahi tedavi seçenekleri tanımlanmıştır. Bu derlemede cerrahi dışı güncel tedavi yöntemleri tartışılacaktır.
