Hip Preservation: Single-Stage Arthroscopic Autologous Matrix–Enhanced Chondral Transplantation (AMECT) in the Hip
Chondral defects of the acetabulum in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome are an increasingly recognized cause of worse outcomes after treatment. Multiple procedures have been described for the treatment of hip cartilage lesions including microfracture, autologous chondrocyte implantation, matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation, and autograft and allograft transplantation.
Knee Preservation: Osteotomies Around the Knee - How to Postpone Total Knee Replacement
Lateral compartment disease combined with valgus alignment can lead to progressive knee joint degeneration. In the symptomatic patient with isolated lateral compartment disease, a varus-producing distal femoral osteotomy can unload the diseased lateral compartment. This osteotomy may be combined with other cartilage or meniscal restorative techniques to optimize knee joint preservation and pain relief.
