Plenty of studies show the enormous benefits of regular exercise on knee health and the protective advantages it can offer in keeping the structures, tissues and ligaments of the knee protected from damage now, and later in life. As long as you clear it w

The arthroscopic cartilage regeneration procedure or realignment osteotomy has been performed as a joint-conserving procedure in cases where conservative treatment for damaged articular cartilage and early osteoarthritis failed.

Autologous chondrocyte implantation, or ACI, is a procedure that treats isolated areas of cartilage damage in the knee. Surgeons remove cartilage cells, grow them in a lab, and then implant them in the area where cartilage is needed.

Mechanical load plus a biomarker that reflects cartilage degradation may predict worsening cartilage thickness in knee osteoarthritis, according to a speaker at the 2021 OARSI World Congress.

Cartilage is a fascinating substance. It coats the ends of our bones, allowing them to glide by one another at joints like our elbows and our knees.

In a recent article published in biomaterials, a team led by researchers at osaka university and kyoto university demonstrated that using cartilage tissue derived from human stem cells could help prevent the loss of functionality from ivd degeneration.

Hip arthroscopy is a procedure commonly performed to correct various hip pathologies such as femoroacetabular impingement and labral tears. These hip pathologies commonly affect young, otherwise healthy patients. The recovery after hip arthroscopy can pre

The labrum is a ring of cartilage along the edge of the socket that gives stability to the hip joint and helps absorb shock. A labral tear is a tear of this cartilage. It can lead to pain, instability, and a clicking sound when moving your hip.Hip labral
