What is Elbow Replacement Surgery?

Elbow replacement surgery involves replacing a broken elbow joint with an artificial implant made up of metal and plastic. It is advised for patients suffering from serious arthritis, bone fractures, or joint instability, which causes persistent pain and restricts movement. The operation restores function, flexibility, and strength to the elbow, which enhances daily activities. The treatment entails removing the injured joint, inserting an artificial implant, and completing therapy to recover. It offers long-term pain reduction and improved flexibility in joints.

Types of Elbow Replacement Surgery?

Elbow replacement surgery differs depending on the extent of the damage and the patient’s needs. Total elbow replacement, which entails replacing the entire joint with a metal and plastic implant, is best suited for severe arthritis or complex fractures. Partial elbow replacement involves replacing only one component of the joint while the other remains healthy. Linked prostheses use a hinge for stability, however they can degrade over time, whereas unlinked prostheses rely on strong ligaments for support. A specialist can recommend the best option for you!

Process of Elbow Replacement Surgery

Elbow replacement surgery involves removing the diseased joint and replacing it with a metal and plastic implant to restore function and relieve pain. The operation starts with an anesthetic and then the surgeon makes an incision to access the joint. The wounded bone and cartilage are carefully removed, and a new implant is tightly attached. After location, the joint is checked for stability before the incision is healed.

Severe or worsening pain, severe swelling, redness, or heat may suggest an infection or implant problems. Limited movement or increased stiffness might suggest poor healing.

Causes of Elbow Replacement Surgery

Elbow transplant surgery usually happens owing to serious joint degeneration that limits motion and causes chronic pain. The most prevalent cause is rheumatoid arthritis, which causes persistent inflammation and joint damage. Osteoarthritis can also wear down cartilage, causing stiffness and pain. Traumatic injuries, such as fractures or dislocations, can cause permanent damage. Conditions such as post-traumatic arthritis or bone tumors might worsen the joint. When non-surgical treatments fail to minimize pain and restore function, elbow replacement becomes the most suitable long-term solution.
