Abstract
Knee joint replacement (KJR) is often required in advanced rheumatoid arthritis (RA) due to severe joint destruction and disability. While modern surgical techniques and perioperative care have improved outcomes, RA patients remain at elevated risk of complications compared to the general osteoarthritis population, owing to systemic inflammation, comorbidities, and immunosuppressive therapy. Real-world prospective data on early postoperative outcomes in RA is limited.
