In general, cartilage regeneration procedures utilize cartilage cells, either from a patient’s body or a donor, to regrow new cartilage. There are numerous ways to accomplish this, with increasing evidence to support its use when the cartilage is injured, but the underlying bone is not involved.
These treatments can be considered “cell-based treatment.” They may be combined with marrow stimulating procedures to promote the recruitment of stem cells to the injured area and promote cartilage regrowth. The ultimate goal of these procedures is to regrow “Hyaline like cartilage,” which is typically found on joint surfaces, as this cartilage has the most optimal properties for joint biomechanics. These procedures are usually associated with a prolonged and strict post-operative recovery to give cells the necessary time to grow.
Cartilage regeneration procedures often utilize cartilage cells, either from a patient's body or a donor, to regrow new cartilage. The goal is to regrow "Hyaline-like cartilage," which has the optimal properties for joint biomechanics and is typically found on joint surfaces.
BioCartilage is one example of a cell-based treatment used for cartilage repair. This technology involves harvesting and cultivating the patient's own cartilage cells, which are then implanted back into the damaged area to regenerate new, healthy cartilage.
Surgical Treatment Options
POA offers a range of surgical procedures for cartilage restoration and regeneration, including Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, Patella Stabilizing Procedures, and Marrow Stimulating Procedures (Microfracture).
Other surgical options include Meniscal Transplant, Meniscal Repair, Matrix Induced Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (MACI) for cartilage regrowth, Osteochondral Allograft Transplant, and High Tibial Osteotomy.
