Arthroplasty, often known as joint replacement surgery, is a surgical procedure that replaces a broken joint with an artificial joint (made of metal, ceramic, or plastic). Typically, providers replace the complete joint (total joint replacement). They rarely repair only the damaged section of the joint. The most common joints they replace are the hips, knees, and shoulders. Arthroplasty is the surgical replacement of a joint. Your healthcare practitioner will remove a damaged joint and replace it with an artificial joint during the surgery. Metal, ceramic, or heavy-duty plastic can be used to make the prosthetic joint (prosthesis). The replacement joint appears and moves similarly to the natural joint. Surgeons can replace joints in any region of your body, but hip replacement and knee replacement are the most common types of arthroplasty. The majority of people who undergo this operation require a total joint replacement. Only a few people are good candidates for partial joint replacement. This treatment merely repairs the damaged portion of the joint. Arthroplasty recovery times vary. It is determined by your age and lifestyle, as well as the type of treatment and the joint replacement.
