These are some of our patients who have benefited from Regenerative Stem Cell Therapy for the treatment of Osteoarthritis. We have seen huge improvements in many of our patients, and many have been able to come off of medications that they needed prior to stem cell therapy! "Molly" - presented as a 3 year old mixed breed who came to us with hip dysplasia so severe that hip replacement surgery was recommended for both hips. After discussing stem cell therapy with the owner, we brought in an orthopedic surgeon to perform the hip replacement in the right hip, and stem cell therapy was performed on the left side. Molly's left hip was injected with stem cells, and additional stem cells were administered intravenously, as well. (Un)fortunately, Molly was feeling so good after treatment, she attempted to jump her gate and broke her right femur. The orthopedic surgeon returned and repaired her broken leg. After 3 months, Molly returned for radiographs to assess the healing of the fractured leg (which had healed very well!), but we were struck by the amazing effects the stem cell treatment had had on her left hip! The arthritis had actually REVERSED itself to a certain extent. While we knew stem cell therapy could improve a patient's comfort with arthritis, the visible improvement to the hip joint on X-rays was an unexpected and exciting development. Update (October 2020) - Molly continues to do well overall for a sweet older girl! She has some stiffness in her rear limbs, but never required surgery on the second leg.
Update (October 2020) – Darwin continues to do great! He is on no medications other than joint supplements. He still loves his cat towers, and now enjoys running up and down the stairs like a kitten! |
