What is Cartilage Repair and Restoration?

Cartilage is a smooth, elastic tissue that covers and cushions the ends of bones in the joints, allowing for pain-free movement. When damaged due to injury, arthritis, or wear and tear, it can cause pain, swelling, and joint instability. Cartilage repair and restoration procedures aim to regenerate or replace damaged cartilage, preventing further joint deterioration and delaying the need for joint replacement surgery.

Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (ACI):

  • Two-stage procedure involving the extraction of healthy cartilage cells from the patient.

  • The cells are cultured and then implanted into the damaged area.

  • Effective for large cartilage defects, restoring joint function.

Osteochondral Autograft Transplantation (OATS):

  • Healthy cartilage and bone grafts are taken from a non-weight-bearing joint area and transplanted into the damaged site.

  • Ideal for localized cartilage defects.

Stem Cell Therapy and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma):

  • Regenerative techniques using stem cells or PRP to promote cartilage healing.

  • Enhances tissue regeneration and reduces inflammation.

  • Suitable for early-stage cartilage damage.

Post-Procedure Rehabilitation:

Dr. Saini emphasizes comprehensive rehabilitation to promote effective healing and prevent further damage. His tailored physiotherapy programs focus on:

  • Joint mobilization exercises to restore flexibility.

  • Strength training to improve muscle support.

  • Low-impact activities to prevent re-injury.
