Abstract:

Minimally invasive treatment has advanced a great deal in the MSK field. Since COVID-19, our understanding and approach using cell biology has increased significantly. As we are now in the biological era with orthopaedics and MSK surgery, there are many new treatment options for our patients. We have been growing cartilage, bone and ligaments for many years, but now, we have the means and know-how of doing it in a minimally invasive fashion. This lecture will discuss the philosophy of biological regeneration for cartilage, meniscus and synovial joints, the benefits and limitations of current therapies. The Key take away message is how to choose the correct biological tools to treat our patients, based on the biological principle. I will also discuss what is currently available and the future of biological cell regeneration in orthopaedics.
