The shape of a person's kneecap could be an indicator of whether they're more at risk of developing osteoarthritis, according to a new study from The Australian National University (ANU) published in Osteoarthritis and Cartilage.

For patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), methotrexate added to usual medication is associated with a significant reduction in pain and improvement in stiffness and function at six months, according to a study published online July 30 in the Annals of Internal Medicine.

HYALEX Cartilage is engineered to replicate the structure and function of hyaline cartilage, the strong and flexible tissue that enables the smooth and pain-free movement of your joints.

Physiochemical tissue inducers and mechanical stimulation are both efficient variables in cartilage tissue fabrication and regeneration. In the presence of biomolecules, decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) may trigger and enhance stem cell proliferation and differentiation.

A novel method analyses fingerprint-like patterns to assess the ability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to repair cartilage.

At NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia, the regenerative power of particulated juvenile articular cartilage (PJAC) allograft transplantation is being harnessed to restore the knees of athletes with patellofemoral articular cartilage defects, a common cause of knee pain and a challenging condition to t...

Published results showed osteochondral allograft transplantation, autologous chondrocyte implantation and matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation all yielded similar outcomes for patients with patellofemoral cartilage defects.

DDH is a condition that prevents parts of your child's hip joints from fitting together correctly.

Hip Arthroscopy in the pediatric and adolescent hip has evolved from its role as a diagnostic tool to a primary modality of management of variety of hip pathologies in children and adolescents. This article reviews current concepts and advances in hip arthroscopy in this population. We discuss the i...

Recurrent groin pain following periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is a challenging problem. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the position and dynamics of the psoas tendon as a potential cause for recurrent groin pain following PAO.
