Artificial finger joint replacement is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of an arthritic or damaged finger joint and replacement with an artificial prosthesis.

Finger joint fusion is performed under local or general anaesthesia and usually takes about 2 hours to complete. A cut is made over the back of the finger joint and the soft tissues and nerves are carefully moved aside to expose the damaged joint.

If conservative treatment options fail to resolve the condition your surgeon may recommend a surgical procedure.

Wrist joint replacement surgery, also referred to as total wrist arthroplasty, involves the replacement of a severe arthritic wrist joint with an artificial joint made of metal and plastic components. It relieves pain and restores function when conservative treatment fails to provide relief.

Wrist fracture fixation may be performed by surgical or non-surgical methods depending on the severity of the fracture...

The peripheral nerves are the nerve fibres that compose the area from head to toe, connecting the brain and spinal cord with the rest of the body parts. Nerves transmit electrical impulses and signals to and from the brain.

Microvascular surgery or microsurgery is a surgical technique for joining or repairing the damaged blood vessels and nerves during reconstructive surgery of body parts. Reconstructive surgery restores the functioning of the body parts by improving circulation.

CMC arthroplasty with TightRope, also known as carpometacarpal suspensionplasty, is a novel procedure employed for the treatment of basal joint arthritis (thumb arthritis) found within the trapezium bone of the carpometacarpal (CMC) joint. It addresses the associated narrowing of the joint space, instability, and dislocation. The procedure involves trapezial resection to remove the diseased joint tissue and repair of the first and second metacarpal using a suspensory device or TightRope to maintain proper thumb functioning.

Trapeziectomy is a surgical procedure to treat a medical condition called “thumb base arthritis”. The procedure involves removal of a small, cube-shaped bone known as the “trapezium” at the base of the thumb joint which joins your thumb to your wrist.
