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.
