Joint replacement surgery, commonly known as arthroplasty, involves replacing a damaged joint with an artificial joint (made of metal, ceramic or plastic). The entire joint is typically replaced by providers (total joint replacement). Less frequently, they just change the joint's damaged portion. They most frequently replace the hips, knees, and shoulders. Arthroplasty is the medical term for replacing a joint. Your healthcare professional replaces a damaged joint with an artificial joint during the surgery. Metal, ceramic, or robust plastic can be used to make the artificial joint (prosthesis). The artificial joint behaves similarly to the native joint and has a comparable appearance. Any joint in your body can be replaced by a surgeon, however the hip replacement and knee replacement are the two most popular arthroplasty procedures. Most patients undergoing this operation require a complete joint replacement. Few patients make excellent candidates for partial joint replacements. Only the damaged portion of the joint is replaced during this operation. The length of arthroplasty recovery varies.
