Stem Cell Therapy/Regenerative Therapy
Stem cell therapy is a regenerative treatment that utilizes stem cells to promote tissue repair and regeneration in the body. Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to develop into specialized cell types, such as muscle, bone, cartilage, or nerve cells. In stem cell therapy, these cells are harvested from the patient’s own body (autologous stem cells) or from other sources such as bone marrow or umbilical cord tissue (allogeneic stem cells).
Stem cells are then injected into the affected area, where they can differentiate into the specific cell types needed to repair damaged tissues. This approach holds promise for treating a wide range of medical conditions, including orthopedic injuries, neurological disorders, autoimmune diseases, and degenerative conditions.
In orthopedics, stem cell therapy has shown potential for treating conditions such as osteoarthritis, ligament and tendon injuries, and cartilage damage. Research in this field is ongoing, with ongoing studies exploring the effectiveness and safety of stem cell therapy for various orthopedic applications.
