Leading-Edge Cartilage Restoration Techniques
At SOAR Clinic of Oregon, we understand the crucial role healthy cartilage plays in maintaining active lifestyles. Dr. Kevin J. Murphy employs a variety of advanced techniques designed to repair or replace damaged cartilage, thus alleviating pain, restoring joint function, and preventing further joint deterioration.
Conditions that Benefit from Cartilage Restoration:
- Early to Moderate Osteoarthritis: Slowing the disease’s progression by repairing the cartilage before extensive damage occurs.
- Sports-related Cartilage Injuries: Addressing acute or chronic injuries common in athletes, allowing them to return to high levels of performance.
- Post-traumatic Cartilage Damage: From severe impacts or accidents that have led to joint deterioration.
Advanced Cartilage Restoration Procedures Include:
- Microfracture Surgery: A minimally invasive procedure where tiny fractures are made in the bone beneath the damaged cartilage to stimulate new growth.
- Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (ACI): Involves harvesting cartilage cells from the patient, cultivating them in a lab, and re-implanting them into the damaged area.
- Osteochondral Autograft Transplantation: This technique involves transferring cartilage from a non-weight-bearing area of the joint to the damaged area.
- Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation: Using cartilage from a donor to replace severely damaged cartilage and underlying bone.
