A damaged elbow joint is removed during an elbow replacement and replaced with a prosthesis, which is an artificial joint. If you have severe arthritis, an injury, or an infection that has seriously affected your elbow, your surgeon might advise this surgery. Elbow arthroplasty and elbow joint replacement are other names for elbow replacement. It can bring back elbow function and range of motion without any pain. The upper arm bone (humerus), lower arm bone on the thumb side (radius), and lower arm bone on the pinky side all make up your elbow joint (ulna). Your arm can bend and straighten thanks to the hinge joint formed when the humerus and ulna contact. The lower arm can rotate between the palm-up and palm-down positions because of how the humerus and radius attach.
