Arthritis pain of the hip is often caused by a lack of cartilage around the hip joints. Traditional treatment for hip joint arthritis often consists of pain medication, Physical therapy, steroid injections or Total Hip Replacement.
We have seen great results in patient outcomes with PRP (PRP study reference) and may prevent the need for Hip Replacement (Daily Edition article).
In the last couple of years, we have also seen positive outcomes when using the Patient’s own Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) (MSC study reference)
It is extremely important to be able to deliver this Biologically active cell ( either PRP or MSC) to the desired location.
In order to have 100 % accuracy with these procedures is to use advanced image guidance. Here is a video of an Injection of the Hip under direct Ultrasonographic guidance.
The hip joint microenvironment normally functions to supply cartilage and supportive knee tissue (ie labrum) with key factors that keep these tissues healthy and strong.
The phenomenon of hip osteoarthritis is complex, but hallmarks include an unhealthy microenvironment for cartilage leading to cartilage loss, bony spurs (osteophytes), and subsequent narrowing of the hip joint space.
Inflammation ensues when the lining of the joint (synovium) becomes inflamed causes hip swelling.
Additionally, as the joint narrows and the hip bones push together bone bruises (bone marrow lesions) may result.
Collectively these processes can produce chronic hip pain for patients with this condition.
Treatment gap is when a patient has failed all conservative non-surgical treatments , continues with limitations and pain but are not ready for surgery.
This is extremely common when it comes to osteoarthritis and two out of three surgeon believes that we have a treatment gap in early Osteoarthritis.
To learn more about the treatment Gap, check out our short video by Dr. Gonzalez explaining the treatment gap in orthopedics.
Hip joint replacement surgery is an invasive procedure in which the ends of your hip bone and socket are cut out and an artificial metal prosthesis is used as a replacement.
Complicating factors include prolonged downtime, hardware misalignment, and risks such as infection, blood clot, pneumonia, stroke, and heart attack.
Additionally, hardware may loosen requiring additional follow up surgery.
