Loose Bodies in Elbow Treatment Elbow Arthroscopy

• The elbow joints in our body join three bones
  that rely on muscles, ligaments and tendons in
  order to stabilize the structure of the elbow and
  also to control movement.
• The radius, ulna and the humerus and the two
  bones of the forearm meet at the flexible joint.
• Cartilage cushions the elbow joint in between the
  bone contacts which provides a smooth layer to
  protect and glide the bone surfaces smoothly
  without causing any damage.

• Treatment of Loose Bodies in Elbow
• A loose body in the elbow is usually a large
  free-floating bone fragment when it is caused by
  a fracture.
• Some other loose bodies are small, that contain
  no bone at all.
• Removal using an orthoscopic procedure is done to
  correct the condition depending upon the size and
  the location of the loose body.
• In case of a large loose body, the surgeon may
  suggest to get it treated by fixing it to an
  adjacent bone.
• The loose body can also be broken up which
  enables the human bodys natural enzymes to
  degrade the remaining material.
