Lenmed Ahmed Kathrada Private Hospital provides specialised Thumb Arthroplasty with a focus on precise joint reconstruction, pain relief, preservation of thumb function, and long-term recovery. Established in 1984, the COHSASA, ISQua hospital is located in Johannesburg, South Africa and operates 254 beds with modern hand surgery infrastructure.

Thumb Arthroplasty is an advanced surgical option for selected patients with severe thumb joint degeneration that causes chronic pain, stiffness, and loss of hand function. Depending on the affected joint and the patient's individual needs, surgeons may use a prosthetic implant or a reconstructive technique to restore joint stability and mobility. A detailed hand assessment and imaging are generally performed before surgery. Following the procedure, splinting and structured rehabilitation help protect the repair and gradually restore thumb strength, mobility, and grip function.
