Tibiofemoral knee osteoarthritis progresses symmetrically by knee compartment in the GOGO cohort

Although right knees tended to have more severe OA at both baseline and follow-up, radiographic progression did not differ by knee and compartmental progression correlated across knees. Given this trend in generalized OA, the risk of progression for both knees should be considered, even if only one knee has radiographic OA at baseline.
