Joint Reconstruction Surgery for Hand Arthritis

Arthroplasty of the intercarpal or carpometacarpal joint generally involves a ligament reconstruction and tendon interposition (LRTI) or Burton LRTI, a procedure in which the surgeon inserts a prosthesis or tendon tissue graft in a joint to reconstruct the joint and restore mobility of the joint. The surgery is primarily performed in a patient suffering from degenerative arthritis, traumatic injury, or infection. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
