Autologous Bone Marrow Concentrate (BMC) for the Treatment of Osteoarthritis (O.A) of the Knee, Hip, and Shoulder in Former N.F.L. Players
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Osteoarthritis (O.A) affects over 50 million Americans. This includes mostly O.A of the shoulder, hip, and knee. Shoulder osteoarthritis (O.A) has been demonstrated in cadaver and radiographic studies to affect up to 33% of patients over the age of 60 [1]. Patients with shoulder O.A have pain, crepitus, decreased ability to place their hand at a desired point in space and loss of motion, severely impairing activities of daily living. The nonsurgical treatments for shoulder O.A include the use of analgesics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, and shoulder exercises to maintain range of motion. The surgical treatment for shoulder O.A is total shoulder arthroplasty [1,2].

متن کاملCombination of bone marrow derived cells transplantation and high tibial osteotomy in early osteoarthritis of knee: A preliminary study
Purpose: high tibial osteotomy (HTO) is a recommended treatment for medial compartment knee osteoarthritis. Newer cartilage regenerative procedures may add benefits to the result of HTO. In this prospective study we investigate safety and also results of HTO associated with bone marrow derived cells (BMDC) transplantation in relatively young and middle aged active individuals with early osteoar...

INTRODUCTION We investigated the use of autologous bone marrow concentrate (BMC) with and without an adipose graft, for treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS Treatment registry data for patients who underwent BMC procedures with and without an adipose graft were analyzed. Pre- and posttreatment outcomes of interest included the lower extremity functional scale (LEFS), the numerical p...
متن کاملThe Healing Effect of Bone Marrow-Derived Stem Cells in Knee Osteoarthritis: A Case Report
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent chronic disease impacting on quality of life and has societal and economical burden increasing with age. Yet, no confirmed pharmacological, biological or surgical therapy could prevent the progressive destruction of OA joint. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with immunosuppressive activities emerged a potential therapy. We describe a magnetic resonance images (MR...
