Biologic Joint Restoration: A Translational Research Success Story

Mo Med. 2022 Mar-Apr;119(2):115-121.

Abstract

Treatment options that result in consistently successful outcomes for young and active patients with joint disorders are needed. This article summarizes two decades of rigorous research using a bedside-to-bench- to-bedside translational approach based on the One Health - One Medicine concept that culminated in successful clinical use of biologic joint restoration options for treatment of knee, hip, ankle, and shoulder problems in this growing patient population.
