Interphalangeal Joint Fusion
Interphalangeal Joint Fusion in Wayne, Paramus, and Parsippany NJ
This is for severe painful arthritis with little to no preserved motion in the joint.
Interphalangeal fusion is usually reserved for patients with severe painful arthritis with little to no preserved motion in the joint. The goal of a fusion is to eliminate pain caused by arthritis by fusing the two bones together, which will also subsequently eliminate any motion through the joint. This may be done in a variety of methods, but usually involves implanting hardware. The fusion may take six to eight weeks to fully heal, and your activities will be restricted until full healing has occurred.
