Joint replacement is a condition offered to patient when it is not possible to salvage the joint. However, in your case, since I do not know the extent of injury,it would be hard to comment on the treatment needed. Precise treatment needed by you can only be informed after an examination for which you have to visit the clinic. For appointment you may contact 9958477555

I suppose you donot want just general answer.If specificities are required you need to give specific details. rgd Dr. Kamal Bachani MBBS, MS, M Ch (Ortho), Fellowship (Germany & South Korea)

It depends what you are looking for. An Elbow replacement surgery is good for regaining movements in a painful arthritis elbow. However, if stability is main concern, sometimes elbow fusion is also offered. It all depends upon the integrity of ligaments around the elbow.
