Stem Cell Therapy Knee

Stem cell knee cartilage replacement is key-hole procedure used to preserve the natural knee joint in knee arthritis, this is new emerging technique is to treat knee arthritis. Through a key-hole (Arthroscopy) the arthritic portion of knee joint is scrapped and cleaned to remove the worn out cartilage. Simultaneously 60ml bone marrow is aspirated from the hip bone through the needle, it is then concentrated to obtain stem cell and growth factors; this is mixed with clotting gel and is injected into the knee joint which is already prepared through key-hole procedure. This procedure avoids Total knee replacement surgery, in which artificial metallic implants are used to replace a joint in knee arthritis.

When the procedure is done, on the same day the patient is allowed to move the joint fully and allowed partial weight bearing walking on the operated leg. This is a day care procedure where the patient is usually sent home within 24 hours. For 6 weeks the patient is advised partial weight bearing after that the patient can weight bear fully and can get back to normal life style.
