Frees an elbow that has become locked and cannot bend or straighten, by cutting away the thickened joint capsule, the scarred soft tissue around it, and abnormal bone that has formed in the surrounding tissues. The aim is to restore as much motion as possible in a joint that has stiffened after injury, surgery, or a period of immobility.
