The indications for arthroplasty are not well defined, for there is considerable diversity of opinion among different surgeons. Broadly, it has a use in the following conditions:

advanced osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis with disabling pain, especially in the shoulder, elbow, hip, hand and metatarso-phalangeal joints;
for the correction of certain types of deformity (especially hallux valgus);
quiescent tuberculous arthritis especially of the elbow or hip;
certain ununited fractures of the neck of the femur. It will be released that in several of these conditions arthroplasty is an alternative to arthrodesis.
