Regenerative medicine is a type of medicine that uses biologic treatments to alleviate the symptoms of certain orthopaedic diseases and has the potential to improve musculoskeletal tissue recovery. Biological tissues found in the human body, such as blood, fat, and bone marrow, are used in regenerative medicine therapies, which are also known as orthobiologics. In most circumstances, this sort of biologic treatment is developed by treating an injury with the patient's own tissue. (This type of regenerative medicine is known as "autologous" regenerative medicine.) Because these medicines are made from the patient's own cells, they are generally safe. Regenerative orthopaedics can help with musculoskeletal pain and discomfort, as well as the repair of orthopaedic disorders such tendon, ligament, bone, muscle, spinal disc, meniscus of the knee, cartilage, and other musculoskeletal tissue injuries. The majority of these body components have a limited ability to recover on their own. The goal of regenerative medicine is to aid in the healing of these tissues.
Musculoskeletal injuries can be painful, bothersome, and life-limiting, and they are also one of the world's major health issues. During the last two decades, there has been a lot of interest in stem cells and tissue engineering approaches in orthopaedic surgery, especially for treating unique and compulsive injuries in the musculoskeletal system. Stem cells have the ability to develop into more than 200 different cell types throughout the body. When they develop into various lineages and become multipotent under the right conditions, they can make new cells in existing healthy tissues and may help to repair tissues in structures that have been harmed or damaged.
