Introduction
The elbow is a complex joint essential for arm movement and daily activities. When injury, arthritis, or nerve compression affects this joint, it can lead to severe pain and limited mobility. At Hand Elbow Shoulder Solutions (HESS) in Lahore, we specialize in advanced elbow surgery, providing relief and restoring function with precision care.
What Is Elbow Surgery?
Elbow surgery includes a range of procedures aimed at treating conditions such as fractures, tendon injuries, arthritis, and nerve compression. These procedures can be minimally invasive (arthroscopic) or open surgeries, depending on the severity of the issue.
Under the care of Brig. (R) Prof. Dr. Khalid Masood, one of Pakistan’s leading upper limb surgeons, HESS offers the most advanced surgical solutions for elbow disorders.
Common Elbow Conditions We Treat
Our team treats a wide variety of elbow-related problems, including:
✅ Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)
Overuse of forearm muscles can cause pain on the outer elbow. When conservative treatment fails, surgical release can provide lasting relief.
✅ Elbow Fractures
We perform fracture fixation using screws, plates, or pins to realign broken bones and ensure proper healing.
✅ Ulnar Nerve Compression (Cubital Tunnel Syndrome)
Compression of the ulnar nerve can cause numbness and weakness in the hand. Ulnar nerve decompression surgery relieves this pressure.
✅ Ligament Injuries
Elbow instability often results from torn ligaments. We offer ligament repair and reconstruction to restore joint stability.
✅ Elbow Stiffness
Scar tissue or joint damage can lead to stiffness. Our elbow stiffness release procedures restore mobility and reduce pain.
✅ Arthritis and Joint Damage
For advanced joint damage, we offer arthroscopic procedures or joint reconstruction based on the patient’s condition.
