Arthrodesis

Arthrodesis

Arthrodesis, also known as joint fusion, is a surgical procedure performed to address severe joint pain or instability by permanently joining two bones within a joint. This procedure aims to eliminate movement in the affected joint, thereby reducing pain and providing stability. It's commonly used in joints such as the ankle, wrist, spine, knee, or fingers, where other treatments like medications, physical therapy, or less invasive surgeries have not been successful. During arthrodesis, the cartilage within the joint is removed, and the surfaces of the bones are aligned and fixed together using screws, plates, or rods. Over time, the bones grow together, forming a solid union. While this procedure limits joint mobility, it can effectively alleviate pain and prevent further degeneration in cases of severe arthritis, joint deformities, or significant joint damage due to injury or disease. Post-surgery, patients undergo rehabilitation to adapt to the changes in joint movement. Though joint motion is lost, patients often experience reduced pain, increased joint stability, and improved function, enabling them to resume daily activities with greater ease and comfort. However, arthrodesis isn't suitable for all cases and requires careful consideration of individual circumstances by a healthcare professional.
