- Abstract
The current approach to the clinical management of osteoarthritis is to alleviate symptoms arising from late-stage disease. Early stage or pre-arthritic disease is clinically silent as structural changes typically precede the clinical signs and symptoms of pain, deformity, functional limitations and disability. Biological and surgical therapeutic approaches to this include platelet-rich plasma (PRP), stromal cells or bone marrow aspirates (BMAC) and hyaluronic acid (HA) as a conservative treatment or support of a surgical cartilage procedure to optimize the cartilage regenerate tissue. The following article provides a condensed overview.
