Keywords:
COVID-19, Coronavirus, gonarthrosis, SAR-CoV-2, joint sepsisAbstract
COVID-19 is a disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. Its etiopathogenic mechanism is based on an immunological alteration that conditions a torrent of inflammatory cytokines that combines with local coagulation disorders to produce the clinical manifestations and complications of the disease. Immunological involvement causes involvement of different organs and organ systems where the osteomyoarticular system is found. The rare and previously unreported image is presented showing degenerative joint changes secondary to a recurrent COVID-19 infection. Clinically, it is accompanied by limitation of mobility, synovitis of the knees, functional disability and impairment of the quality of life related to health.
