Abstract
Background: Knee osteoarthritis is a joint disorder that shows up essentially in elderly persons and is characterized by disintegration in the articular ligament, osteophyte, synovitis inflammation, and subchondral bone firmness.

Aims: To describe the risk factors for developing symptomatic knee osteoarthritis in female Iraqi patients.
Patients and Methods: This investigation incorporates 50 female patients with clinical and radiological highlights of knee osteoarthritis in different age groups.
Result: The evaluated pervasiveness of knee osteoarthritis among women matured 40-49 years or more is 14 % of who had knee osteoarthritis with injury or trauma and 86% of women who had knee Osteoarthritis without injury or trauma.
