Many surgeries are done now days to overcome the pain and suffering caused by arthritis. Orthopedic
surgeries comprise of implantation of artificial products in place of the original bones and various parts of
the body. In many cases, the artificial parts are implanted to support the defective or hampered original
body parts. These surgeries can be carried to different parts such as thumb, hip, knee and back as well.
Many people prefer to go for the implants of body parts to reduce their sufferings of arthritis. Similarly, this
Artelon thumb implant is also done with the same purpose and aim. For doing the implant, the Artelon
CMC Spacer is used to treat people suffering from early to mid stage arthritis of the hand.
The woven device is made up of Artelon fibers. The Artelon CMC Spacer
hand joint implant has a t - shape which is made up of plastic gauze and is
completely biocompatible and degradable. These Artelon CMC Spacer is
made for thumb, wrist and hand joint implants. In the Artelon thumb
implant the Artelon CMC Spacer is implanted near the base of the thumb.
The main aim of the surgery is to preserve the thumb joint and help it to
restore the joint functions. It also helps in minimizing the need to sacrifice
the healthy bone and tissues. But as there is an exception, in this surgery also not every person who has
gone though the thumb implant does Noah gets the positive result.
This may result into many problems such as inflammatory response and swelling with bone loss. It may
also require later on the surgical removal of failed implant device. At times, this spacer can break down in
the hand which further requires a joint repair surgery. Similar to thumb implant, defective knee implant is
also done for the patients to overcome the problem of arthritis. The products or artificial products which
are used in the surgery gradually wear from passing time and then there comes a requirement of revised
surgery. The wearing of the products used in the surgery is mainly caused by many reasons and to
mention some of them are large amount of weight of the body which puts pressure on the limb. As the time
passes, the mechanical components of the implant wear down.
Misalignment, loosening, failure of the device to bond
the natural and healthy bone, the presence of foreign
material and infection can also be the main reasons
which can result into the revised implant of the knee.
The first or the primary surgery which is done on the
knee is much more comfortable and easy for the patient
in comparison to the revised surgery. The risk is also
involved in the first surgery but it increases a lot in the
case of repetitive knee surgery of the defective joints.
Apart from all the above mentioned causes and effects
of defective implantation of the knee there is one more
result which can be faced by many patients. It is that
many patients can face the issue of shorter limb after
he revised surgery which can also result in less motion
of the knee or other joints. People must think twice before stepping forward to the revised surgery.
