Arthrodesis: When Motion is the Problem
In this BoardsCast episode, we focus on a procedure that sacrifices joint motion for the sake of pain-free function: arthrodesis.
We explore:
- When arthrodesis is a solution — and when it’s a mistake
- Principles of surgical joint fusion, from joint prep to compression and alignment
- Common sites for arthrodesis (carpus, tarsus, elbow, shoulder) and their differences
- How to plan angles and avoid mechanical overload
- Complications: implant failure, fracture, malalignment, and limb dysfunction
- Case-based board questions and a review of fixation strategy, grafting, and outcomes
If you’ve ever faced a chronically unstable joint or a failed reconstruction, this episode gives you the framework for knowing when to fuse — and how to fuse right.
