note[edit]

I felt this page required some major expansion. I was debating about adding information about specific arthrodeses, but felt that describing procedures to that level of detail was probably beyond the scope of the encyclopaedia. I realise that there are other (congenital, metabolic, neuropathic, etc) causes of intractible joint pain for which arthrodesis may be indicated, and I may at some point come back and compile a list. However, dear reader, if you feel you are appropriately qualified to do so, please feel free to do this yourself. Happy wiki-ing! Mattopaedia 14:35, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pictures[edit]

Look at the Swedish artikel about arthrodesis. There is images of my left shoulder, I´ve gone through three surgeries within a year. The two last ones was arthrodesis on the shoulder. First attempt didn´t work so they had to make a moore extensive operation, as you can see on the pics. Please feel free to use them on this article and if there´s anyone who has the same problem, please feel free to contact me on my talk side. Arthrodesis on the shoulder is very unusual. /Johsan 21:37, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone please[edit]

Could someone please break this article into sections according to the guidelines suggested at Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(Medicine-related_articles)#Diseases.2Fdisorders.2Fsyndromes? It would be a big improvement for the readers. WhatamIdoing (talk) 20:01, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alternatives?[edit]

I am looking for any possible to alternatives to a second (full) cervical fusion due to misalignment from a car accident after my first fusion. Has anyone found one or have any suggestions to avoid further fusion?
