Use of Adipose Tissue Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Knee Osteoarthrosis

Hanan Jafar10 enrolled

Overview

Adipose tissue derived Mesenchymal Stem cells (ATMSC) will be injected in patients diagnosed with Knee osteoarthrosis

Ten patients from both genders diagnosed with Knee osteoarthrosis, will be enrolled according to specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. These patients will be injected with Adipose Tissue derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Then, they are followed by clinical assessment, laboratory investigations as well as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the injected knee.
