Other cases include hand injuries, such as fractures of the humerus, ulna, and forearm.

Additionally, MGH hand surgery also includes fighting benign and malignant tumors affecting hand tissues. It is also a treatment for vascular injuries, burns, and fingers injurers.
Elbow Operation
Elbow surgery is a set of procedures treating various diseases that affect the elbow joint of the arm. The surgery can be performed to treat rheumatoid arthritis or remove tumors of joint tissues. It is also carried out to repair joints due to fractures, along with the possibility to replace a completely irreparably damaged elbow with a functional prosthesis.
