Biologic Joint Replacement: Meniscus Transplantation

Back


Can You Avoid Artificial Knee Replacement? "Doc, isn't there something you can put in my knee to be a shock absorber?" Many people with severe arthritis are told they need an Artificial Joint Replacement. Metal and plastic implants replace the worn and arthritic surfaces to alleviate pain and restore activity. However, artificial joints have a finite lifespan, come with activity restrictions, and are more invasive compared to arthroscopic Biologic Joint Replacement. We can biologically replace the meniscus cartilage in most knees -- both young and old, both injured and arthritic. Using a biologic approach, we can delay or avoid the need for artificial joints. This video describes the surgical technique of an arthroscopic procedure for replacing the meniscus cartilage.
