What is Revision Elbow Replacement

When your elbow replacement becomes damaged, loose, infected, or has another issue, you will need to undergo another procedure for a new one. Also known as revision elbow arthroplasty, revision elbow replacement is a procedure that replaces the initial replacement.

If you have persistent pain in your elbow following the initial replacement, it is an indication that you might need to undergo our revision elbow replacement in Houston, TX. Our specialist will conduct blood tests and X-rays to confirm if the initial elbow replacement is failing.

Questions About Revision Elbow Replacement?

Reasons for the Treatment

There are various reasons why you may need the treatment, as many factors can result in a faulty or worn-out initial elbow replacement.

Patients often experience aseptic loosening, which takes place when the implant loosens from the bone gradually due to wear and tear or problems with the bone. You can also develop an infection in the initial replacement, leading to the need for revision elbow replacement.

If you fall or injure your elbow around the replacement, it could come loose and require the procedure. Other than this, component failure and instability are also some instances where our specialist might suggest revision elbow replacement in Houston.

Rehabilitation

We want our patients to have a successful revision procedure, which is why we recommend rehabilitation that helps with your recovery.

You will have a unique and special rehabilitation according to your case, planned by specialists. You can look forward to optimal results after your revision elbow replacement at our Houston clinic!

The staff is very professional and friendly. Dr. Cusick takes his time in explaining and going over any issues or concerns. Have not done much since the shoulder surgery for two months but I have not experienced ANY PAIN.

This is Iva Phillips. Very helpful visit today. Will be starting Therapy. Dr. Cusick took time to explain my problem and ways to try to prevent surgery.

Gilmer Phillips

Dr Cusick and his aide were very helpful with their assessment of my problem. They gave me alternative solutions to consider and showed me X-rays of my shoulder. I was surprised that we got in after a short wait. They took several X-rays and counseled with me in a very efficient manner. I was in and out in much less time than I had anticipated!

Jack Roland

AMAZING! Dr Cusick listened to me talk about my symptoms and pain. He talked to me rather than just look at my images. Later, he explained the images to me and together we agreed on a plan Of Action. 10/10

Peffley Nazlin

Thank you for a pleasant experience! The front office staff as well as the medical staff made me feel like family. They answered all my questions and I didn't feel rushed. The wait time was also less than 5 minutes of my scheduled appointment.

Robert Peeler

If this surgery is a little frightening, I understand. I interviewed doctors until I was satisfied that the one I chose was right for me. The pain and restriction of movement in my left shoulder was debilitating. Dr. Michael Cusick is totally committed to his trade. Complete total reverse shoulder replacement.

Kyle Powell

Don't get me wrong there was hiccups and waiting to have surgery seemed like forever but Dr. Cusick, his office staff and the hospital staff especially has been amazing. They went above and beyond to get my surgery approved so we wouldn't have to put it off longer. Dr. Cusick keeps a positive outlook even at times...
