Autologous chondrocyte implantation, or ACI, is a procedure that was developed in the late 1980s to treat isolated areas of cartilage damage in the knee.. Since then, it has achieved "excellent long-term results, both in terms of cartilage repair and help

Cartilage regeneration attempts to restore damaged articular (joint) cartilage. Several techniques have been used for cartilage regeneration. While some of these are being used today, researchers continue to look into new ways to regrow cartilage in an at

A novel off-the-shelf bio-implant containing embryonic stem cells has the potential to revolutionize the treatment of cartilage injuries

Published results showed patients undergoing high tibial osteotomy combined with a human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cell cartilage regeneration procedure may experience improved clinical outcomes and joint space width.

The purpose of this study was to report minimum 2-year follow-up PROs and RTS rates in athletes undergoing concomitant hip arthroscopy with periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) to treat acetabular dysplasia and intra-articular pathology such as cam deformity an

Orthopedic surgeons have become better at understanding sources of pain, and technology has increased our ability to diagnose conditions that previously went undetected. One source of hip and groin pain that is being diagnosed much more commonly is called

Deep gluteal syndrome (DGS) is an underdiagnosed condition caused by an extra-spinal entrapment of the sciatic nerve in the deep gluteal space. Symptomatic patients who fail conservative treatment require surgical decompression of the nerve either by an o

High-level athletes in flexibility sports who were treated for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome with hip arthroscopy had higher rates of femoral head cartilage lesions and ligamentum teres tears requiring debridement compared to other athletes, a new

Compared with competitive athletes who experience symptoms for longer than 1 year, athletes who experience symptoms for less than 1 year demonstrate superior patient-reported outcomes after hip arthroscopy, results showed.

Results showed patients who underwent hip arthroscopy with acetabular microfracture for the management of focal and full-thickness cartilage lesions demonstrated significant improvement in outcomes and survivorship at 10 years.
