👉 Arthrotrauma is a surgical procedure that involves the repair or replacement of damaged cartilage in joint structures. It typically refers to injuries such as falls, sports-related accidents, and repetitive motions that cause damage to the joints. Arthrotrauma can occur in various parts of the body but is most commonly associated with the knees, hips, and elbows. This type of trauma requires careful wound care and post-operative management to prevent complications and ensure a successful recovery.
