Elbow Arthroplasty, commonly known as Total Elbow Replacement (TER), is a surgical procedure designed to replace the damaged or diseased parts of the elbow joint with artificial implants. This procedure is recommended for individuals suffering from severe arthritis, fractures, or joint instability, which significantly impact daily activities and cause persistent pain.

Dr. Shekhar Srivastav, a renowned orthopedic specialist in Delhi, specializes in Elbow Arthroplasty, helping patients restore elbow function, reduce pain, and regain mobility.

Who Needs Elbow Arthroplasty?

This procedure is recommended for individuals who have:

• Severe rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis, leading to joint destruction and pain.
• Post-traumatic arthritis, resulting from old fractures or injuries.
• Complex elbow fractures that cannot be repaired with conventional methods.
• Joint instability or failed previous surgeries, causing limited movement and discomfort.

Types of Elbow Arthroplasty

• Total Elbow Replacement (TER): The entire elbow joint is replaced with a metal and plastic implant to restore smooth motion.
• Partial Elbow Replacement: Only one side of the joint (either the humerus or ulna) is replaced, typically for localized damage.
• Hemiarthroplasty: The damaged humeral component is replaced while preserving the natural ulna.
