At ReGenSports Ortho Clinic, under the expert care of Dr. Sanjay Kapoor (M.B.B.S., D-Ortho, M.S., M.Ch (USA)), we believe in offering cutting-edge regenerative treatments that can reduce or even eliminate the need for invasive surgeries. One such revolutionary option is Stem Cell Therapy, a minimally invasive treatment that holds the promise of natural healing for damaged joints.
Understanding Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cells are the building blocks of the body. They have the unique ability to transform into various types of cells, including bone, cartilage, and muscle cells. In orthopedic treatments, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are extracted from your own body (usually from bone marrow or adipose tissue) and injected into the damaged joint area to aid repair and regeneration.
Common Conditions Treated
Stem Cell Therapy is proving to be highly effective in treating a variety of joint-related issues, including:
Osteoarthritis of the Knee and Hip
Early Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the Hip
Meniscus and Ligament Tears
Cartilage Damage
Early Degenerative Joint Disease
Why Consider Stem Cell Therapy Before Joint Replacement?
1. Natural Healing Process
Unlike traditional joint replacement surgeries that involve removing the damaged joint and replacing it with an artificial implant, stem cell therapy encourages your body to heal itself.
2. Minimally Invasive Procedure
Stem cell therapy is performed as a daycare procedure without any major cuts, general anesthesia, or extended hospital stays.
3. Quick Recovery
Patients undergoing stem cell therapy often resume their normal activities much faster than those who undergo joint replacement surgery.
4. No Risk of Rejection
Since the stem cells are derived from your own body, the risk of rejection or allergic reaction is virtually zero.
5. Delay or Avoid Surgery
Many patients who opt for stem cell therapy experience significant relief from pain and improved joint function, helping them delay or completely avoid joint replacement surgery.
Stem Cell Therapy vs. Joint Replacement Surgery
| Feature | Stem Cell Therapy | Joint Replacement Surgery |
|---|---|---|
| Invasiveness | Minimally Invasive | Highly Invasive |
| Hospital Stay | Few Hours | 3-5 Days |
| Recovery Time | 1-2 Weeks | 2-3 Months |
| Risk of Infection/Complication | Low | Higher |
| Natural Joint Preservation | Yes | No |
| Suitable for All Ages | Best for Younger & Middle Age | Usually for Older Patients |
Ideal Candidates
Stem cell therapy is most beneficial for individuals who:
Are in early to moderate stages of joint degeneration
Want to delay or avoid surgery
Are not candidates for surgery due to age or other health conditions
Prefer a natural and non-surgical approach to healing
