  9. Elbow Replacement • In total elbow replacement surgery, the damaged parts of the humerus and ulna are replaced with artificial components. • The artificial elbow joint is made up of a metal and plastic hinge with two metal stems. The stems fit inside the hollow part of the bone called the canal. • There are different types of elbow replacements, and components come in different sizes. • There are also partial elbow replacements, which may be used in very specific situations.
