Elbow arthrolysis

Chirurgie du coude à Paris: Arthrolyse du coude - Dr Paillard

Elbow arthrolysis

Elbow stiffness can occur suddenly after a trauma or a fracture, and can develop progressively in the case of osteoarthritis. The aim of elbow arthrolysis is to improve and even recover complete mobility, strength and function. The bones and tendons restricting the mobility are treated with a scalpel and a motorised cutter. In some cases, the operation can be performed arthroscopically.
