Cartilage Repair Can Help Lakewood, NJ, Residents Find Relief from Joint Pain

Cartilage repair and restoration are some of the many orthopedic services available at Advanced Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute (AOSMI). Conveniently located close to Lakewood, New Jersey, AOSMI is your source for all types of orthopedic care, including conservative, surgical, and alternative treatments. If you’re dealing with joint pain due to a recent injury or a chronic condition, you can find the treatment and care you need at our clinic.

Cartilage plays an important role in cushioning the joints and allowing them to move smoothly. However, sudden trauma, ligament injuries, or poorly aligned joints can all cause injury to the cartilage, which can result in joint pain. Patients from Lakewood, NJ, who seek treatment at AOSMI benefit from the care our team of board-certified orthopedic surgeons provides. We perform a number of procedures that can help repair cartilage and alleviate your symptoms. Some examples include:

Autologous chondrocyte implantation – Cartilage cells from the patient’s own body are removed during an arthroscopic procedure, grown in a lab for a period of time, and then reintroduced to the patient in the damaged area of the joint.
Osteochondral allograft transplant – Bone and cartilage plugs from a donor are placed in the damaged area of the joint.
Osteochondral autograft transplant – This procedure takes bone and cartilage from a healthy area of the knee and transfers it to the damaged area.
Microfracture – This arthroscopic procedure helps stimulate cartilage regrowth to repair the damaged area.
