"Tommy John" Ligament Surgery

At first, the elbow seems like a simple hinge. But when the complexity of the interaction of the elbow with the forearm and wrist is understood, it is easy to see why the elbow can cause problems when it does not function correctly. Part of what makes us human is the way we are able to use our hands. Effective use of our hands requires stable, painless elbow joints.

Tommy John Surgery (Named after the famous Major League Baseball pitcher) is a procedure that is essentially elbow reconstruction. For more information on the elbow and elbow disorders please link to www.eorthopod.com.
