Summary: broken bone. New bone forms to heal the two pieces together. When the fusion is healed, a strong, solid connection between the humerus and ulna will have replaced the painful arthritic joint. The first step in an elbow fusion is an incision down the back of the elbow. The incision is made on the back side because most of the blood vessels and nerves are on the inside of the elbow
