Elbow Surgery
Elbow surgery is a medical procedure performed to address various conditions affecting the elbow joint, including fractures, dislocations, and chronic conditions such as tennis elbow or golfer’s elbow. The surgery may involve different techniques, including open surgery or minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery.
During the surgery, the surgeon will make an incision over the elbow joint to access the affected area. In some cases, small instruments and a camera may be used to perform the procedure through small incisions. The surgeon will then repair or remove damaged tissues, bone fragments or use screws and plates to fix fractures. Following the procedure, the surgeon will close the incision and place a bandage or cast to support the healing process.
Hip Replacement
Hip replacement surgery is a surgical procedure performed to replace the hip joint with an artificial joint. The surgery may be recommended for people with severe hip pain or limited mobility due to arthritis or other conditions affecting the hip joint.
During the surgery, the surgeon will make an incision over the hip joint to remove the damaged bone and cartilage. The remaining bone is then prepared to fit the new artificial joint, which consists of a metal or plastic ball and socket. The new joint is then inserted and secured to the bone using screws or cement. Following the procedure, the patient may need to use crutches or a walker for a few weeks and undergo physical therapy to restore mobility and strength in the hip joint.
