Efficacy and Safety of Fat-Derived Autologous Expanded Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy for the Management of Musculoskeletal Conditions: A 5-Year Experience
Journal Title: Journal of Orthopaedic Science and Research - Year 2022, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
This editorial addresses the efficacy of single or repeated fat-derived autologous expanded Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) therapy for orthopaedic conditions, specifically degenerative and injury-related joint and soft tissue disorders. Over the last five years, we have tried MSC therapy for peripheral large and small joints in several hundreds of clients. Our process starts with rheumatologic consultation at the regenerative clinic to select suitable candidates for MSC therapy. We rule out active cancer and pregnancy. Next, the surgical team performs the fat harvesting process under local anaesthesia. We send the sample to our sterile biologic lab for culture-expansion of the MSCs to many millions based on the area (s) involved and the severity of the condition. The cells remain frozen until the MSCs implantation time.
