Arthroplasty
Arthroplasty is a surgical procedure that replaces or repairs parts of a damaged joint. It is primarily used to treat severe pain and disability caused by conditions such as arthritis, bone fractures, and joint injuries. This procedure often involves implanting a prosthesis, or artificial joint, to restore normal joint function. In some cases, arthroplasty can provide long-term pain relief and improved mobility. The success of the procedure depends on multiple factors, including the type of joint affected and the patient's age and health. It is an important procedure to restore the quality of life for many people with joint diseases or injuries.
